When I say I love you (Point to lips)

It comes from my heart (Hand on heart)

You hear it in your ear (Point to ear)

And it sounds very smart (Point to head)

I love it when you’re proud of me (Stand real tall)

You say it all day long (Stretch arms wide)

And when I hear you say it (Point to ear)

My heart sings a merry song (Hand on heart)
