Thread Name: Lyr Req: One to a Hundred (Bert Jansch)
Subject: Lyr Add: ONE HUNDRED (Scott & Amy Faris)
Dunno if this is it or not:

100

How do I love thee, let me count the ways
A million, a billion, so many I can’t even say
How do I love thee, at least a hundred ways
One hundred

When I met you I was half of me and you were half of you
But when we said “I do”, we made one from two;
Now you are

A hundred sonnets sleeping in my head
A hundred fireflies dancing in my bed
A hundred reasons to just stay home instead
One hundred

How do I love thee, let me count the ways
A billion, a trillion, so many I can’t even say
How many kisses I’ll give you every day
One hundred

Now what we have together ain’t a dime-store novel rendezvous
But I still count the hours 'til the time I can show you:

A hundred sonnets sleeping in my head
A hundred fireflies dancing in my bed
A hundred reasons to just stay home instead
One hundred. One hundred.
