| He'd turn the flowers of springtime into a wreath
| |
| | |
| He says he'd love you eternally
| |
| | |
| I say please please can't you keep it brief
| |
| | |
| | |
| They say they're going to bury you
| |
| | |
| Because you're so lovable
| |
| | |
| Put your money where your mouth was
| |
| | |
| You're so lovable
| |
| | |
| Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
| |
| | |
| You're so lovable
| |
| | |
| The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
| |
| | |
| You're so lovable
| |
| | |
| | |
| You're so sweet
| |
| | |
| You're so honest
| |
| | |
| You say `I'll be true to you boy'
| |
| | |
| But I won't promise
| |
| | |
| Then you say you love me
| |
| | |
| Then you show me
| |
| | |
| As you lie there so lifelike below me
