The Love Nest Lyrics - Rapture - Johnny Mathis

Many builders there have been 

Since the world began; 

Palace, cottage, mansion, inn, 

They have built for man. 

Some were small and some were tall: 

Long or wide or low. 

But the best one of them all 

Jack built long ago. 

'Twas built in bygone days, 

Yet millions sing its praise.

Just a love nest 

Cozy with charm, 

Like a dove nest 

Down on a farm. 

A veranda with some sort of clinging vine, 

Then a kitchen where some rambler roses twine. 

Then a small room, 

Tea set of blue; 

Best of all, room— 

Dream room for two. 

Better than a palace with a gilded dome, 

Is a love nest 

You can call home.

Building houses still goes on 

Now as well as then. 

Ancient Jack and Jill are gone, 

Yet return again. 

Ever comes the question old: 

Shall we build for pride, 

Or shall brick and mortar hold 

Warmth and love inside? 

The answer you may know: 

Jack solved it long ago
