C                     Dm           G
Cherish is the word I use to describe
        C                          Dm             G
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
               Em                                    F

C                       Dm             G
Perish is the word that more than applies
       C                     Dm         G
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
