Lyrics

[Ted]
All the girls I see
Make a hit with me
Where’er I wander,
I love brunettes or something blonder.

[Lissie]
I don’t care a bit Where your heart may flit;

[Ted]
Why surely you knew, dear,
I was teasing,
I love you dear.

[Duet]
You said something when you said you love me,
Oh, but I wonder for how long it will be.
If you find someday, you’ve altered your mind
I’d be forgiving,
But simply could not go on living!

[Lissie]
Girls much prettier you will meet by the score,
Will you regret you never met them before?
You said something when you said you love me,
But say it a whole lot more.

[Lissie]
All the men I know
Fascinate me so,
Oh! What romances
I’ve built around them in my fancies.

[Ted]
I am not aware Why you think I care;

[Lissie]
Why surely you knew, dear,
I was teasing,
I love you dear

[Duet]

[Ted]
Men much handsomer you’ll meet by the score,
Will you regret you never met them before?
You said something when you said you love me,
But say it a whole lot more.
