He Will Understand 1916 'You're In Love'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 04 Jun 2005

[Georgiana:] I am afraid
'tis not the fashion
for any maid
to tell her passion.
[Dorothy:] Yet there are ways
and 'cute little tricks,
bearing their thrills
like telegraph clicks.
[Lacey:] No spoken word
yet just like wireless
his heart is stirred
by thoughtwaves tireless.
[Dorothy:] And any girl can
do it with ease.
Just try a few wiles like these.

A downcast eye
when e'er he meets you.
A little sigh
when e'er he greets you:
And should he touch your finger
your trembling finger,
just let it linger!
A breathless hush
if he address you,
A sudden blush
if he caress you;
these tricks are sure to land,
and he will understand!

A downcast eye
when e'er he meets you.
A little sigh
when e'er he greets you:
And should he touch your finger
your trembling finger,
just let it linger!
A breathless hush
if he address you,
A sudden blush
if he caress you;
these tricks are sure to land,
and he will understand!
