Fair Honey Moon 1919 'The Velvet Lady'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 28 Mar 2004

[Ned:] You start to spend a honeymoon,
how can you tell the ending?
[George:] You're apt to find out very soon,
it's much more than time and trouble
you are spending!
[Bubbles:] But 'tis the sweetest time in life!
And you'll forget it never!
[Ottilie:] I only hope, oh, fairest moon,
you'll shine on for ever!

[All:] Fair honeymoon! Keep shining,
to guide us on our happy way!
Give ev'ry cloud silv'ry lining,
as along life's primrose path we stray!
How many pairs of lovers,
too late have looked to find you gone,
Returning never!
So ever, fair honeymoon, shine on!

Fair honeymoon! Keep shining,
to guide us on our happy way!
Give ev'ry cloud silv'ry lining,
as along life's primrose path we stray!
How many pairs of lovers,
too late have looked to find you gone,
Returning never!
So ever, fair honeymoon, shine on!
