There's many things in a glance
Look too long you can be put in a trance
A look conveys so many words
A glance can say it in no uncertain terms

A look can make the heart sing
A glance can make wedding bells ring
A look again can make one feel very bold
A glance a story it can unfold

A look a glance and a look again
can sometimes reveal one's favorite yen
A look a glance and who's to know
Whether cupid will release the arrow from his bow
