Je score:
So you want me to say that I love you In the words of a storybook man Little girl, what you ask Is indeed quite a task Playing hero is more than I can I'm a stranger with flowery speeches As a poet I never could learn All that I ask of you is to love me This is all I can say in return [chorus:] I'll make ev'ry Monday a Sunday I'll cover a wrong with a right I'll still wear a smile in the morning The smile that I wore last night I'll stick when the sunshine has vanish'd And darkness is all that remains I'll hold an umbrella up over your head When it rains, sweetheart, when it rains [2nd verse:] If I said that you looked like a princess Or a queen, I'd be telling you lies 'Cause I never have seen Any princess or queen Still I don't think I've cheated my eyes All the words Mister Webster made famous With "I love you" they never could start If the speaker is dead on the level And the words come from down in his heart
