You can take possession darling when I hear you say I do

When you slip a ring on my finger take possession I belong to you



Some folks give away their love too soon when their feelings make them blind

But I'll wait until my honeymoon for I'll still be old fashioned kind

You can take possession darling...

[ steel - guitar ]

When you take me in your arms each night and you say what I want to know

We can let temptation burn too bright even though I do love you so

Surely love can wait if love is great please protect me when we're alone

Keep the flame of love real low my love till my name's the same as your own

You can take possession darling...
