I swear it's true, darling; you're the only one
I've been so blue and lonesome since you've gone
I love you; I'll prove it a thousand ways
I'll be nice and sweet to you
And no more will you be blue
I'll prove I love you every day all kinds of ways
So, darling, please wait, please wait until I'm free
I love you, and there'll never be blue days
I love you, and I'll prove it a thousand ways
I'll be nice and sweet to you
