Because they told me
I can't behold ye
Till weddin' music starts playin'

To ease my longin'
There's nothin' wrong
In my standin' out here and sayin'

Come to me, bend to me, kiss me good day!
Darlin', my darlin', 'tis all I can say
Jus' come to me, bend to me, kiss me good day!

Give me your lips
And don't take them away
Come, dearie, near me so ye can hear me
I've got to whisper this softly

For though I'm burnin' to shout my yearnin'
The words come tiptoein' off me

Oh, come to me, bend to me, kiss me good day!
Darlin' my darlin', 'tis all I can say
Jus' come to me, bend to me, kiss me good day!
Give me your lips an' don't take them away
