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
LA RE
They say they're going to bury you
MI LA
Because you're so lovable
LA RE
Put your money where your mouth was
MI LA
You're so lovable
LA RE
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
MI LA
You're so lovable
LA RE
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
(modulation)
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
