BARBERSHOP MEDLEY
By the light of the silvery moon,
I want to spoon,
To my honey I’ll croon love’s tune.
Honey moon, keep a-shining in June.
Your silvery beams will bring love’s dreams.
We’ll be cuddling soon, by the silvery moon.
Sweet Adeline (sweet Adeline),
My Adeline (my Adeline),
At night, dear heart (etc.) for you I pine.
In all my dreams your fair face beams,
You’re the flower of my heart, sweet Adeline.
You’re the flower of my heart, sweet Adeline.
Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose, to get the sun back in the sky.
Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose, about a thousand kisses shy.
Ding, dong, ding, I can hear the chapel bell chime.
Ding, dong, ding, at the least suggestion I’ll pop the question.
Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose, without a sweetheart to my name.
Lida Rose, now everyone knows that I am hoping you’re the same,
So here is my love song, not fancy or fine:
Lida Rose, oh won’t you be mine,
(Lida Rose, oh Lida Rose, oh Lida Rose…)
Dream of now, dream of then,
Dream of a love song that might have been.
Do I love you? Oh yes, I love you,
And I’ll bravely tell you, but only when we dream again,
Sweet and low, sweet and low,
How sweet that mem’ry, how long ago!
Forever? Oh yes, forever.
Will I ever tell you? Ah, no.
(Lida Rose, oh Lida Rose, oh Lida Rose.)
