First Verse
I don't know why I call you my dear, I don't know why I feel so sincere Why do I want you why am I glad, Why am I happy, why am I sad. Why do I smile when I ought to cry Why do you say good-bye, Why am I yearning, my heart is burning, I know the reason why.

Second Verse
You are the dearest you are the best, You are so different from all the rest I love to gaze in those tender eyes, A world of wealth is no greater prize You have a charm that seems to be new It thrills me thru and thru, Don't leave me lonely, I want you only, Nobody else but you.

Chorus
Beautiful girl, I love you, beautiful girl, I love you I loved you truly for many a day, There's only one thing that my heart seems to say, Beautiful girl, You haunt me, beautiful girl, I want you I love your eyes. Your smile, your sighs, You beautiful, beautiful girl.

First Verse
Won't you take a look at me, I'm as nervous as can be, Can't you see that I'm waiting so impatiently For the morning to appear, Every minute seems a year, till I place the band upon the hand of my little sweetie dear.

Second Verse
How the hours seem to crawl, Haven't slept a wink at all Can't you see that I'm waiting for the rooster's call, In a little while or so, 'Round the corner I will go, where I'll place the band upon the hand of the sweetest girl I know.

Chorus
Tomorrow morning, I'll be wearing a smile, Tomorrow morning, as I march down the aisle I'll have the cutest bunch of charm hanging on my arm, You just wait'll you see my sweetie and me, what a happy pair we'll be, when it's all over, hand in hand we will roam, thru' fields of clover, to Home Sweet Home, I just can't wait until the sunrise begins to rise, tomorrow morning, I'll be in paradise.
