Wont You by Thomas Baily Lyrics
Do you remember when you heard
My lips breathe love's first faltering word?
You do, sweet - don’t you?
When having wandered all the day,
Linked arm in arm, I dared to say,
"You'll love me - won't you?"
And when you blushed, and could not speak,
I fondly kissed your glowing cheek ;
Did that affront you?
Oh, surely not ; your eye exprest
No wrath - but said, perhaps in jest,
"You’ll love me - won't you?"
I'm sure me eyes replied, "I will;"
And you believe that promise still ;
You do, sweet - don't you?
Yes, yes! when age has made our eyes
Unfit for questions or replies,
You'll love me - won't you?
My lips breathe love's first faltering word?
You do, sweet - don’t you?
When having wandered all the day,
Linked arm in arm, I dared to say,
"You'll love me - won't you?"
And when you blushed, and could not speak,
I fondly kissed your glowing cheek ;
Did that affront you?
Oh, surely not ; your eye exprest
No wrath - but said, perhaps in jest,
"You’ll love me - won't you?"
I'm sure me eyes replied, "I will;"
And you believe that promise still ;
You do, sweet - don't you?
Yes, yes! when age has made our eyes
Unfit for questions or replies,
You'll love me - won't you?
