What makes me love him lyrics

What makes me love him?

It's not his singing,

I've heard his singing,

it sours the milk

and yet, it's gotten to the point

where I prefer that kind of milk.

What makes me love him?

It's not his learning.

he's learned so slowly,

his whole life long

and though he really knows

a multitude of things

they're mostly wrong.

He's not romantic,

and yet I love him.

no one occasion

he's used me ill

and though he's handsome

I know inside me

were he a plain man

I'd love him still.

What makes me love him?

It's quite beyond me,

it must be something

I can't define.

Unless it's merely

that he's masculine

and that he's mine
