I'd Like A Girl Like You 1908

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 29 Aug 2005

I know a score of girls
but there are none like you,
don't turn away, believe me true.
If I should tell you
you're the sweetest girl I've met,
do you think that I'd regret?
I care not for the maiden
with the roguish eyes,
or one who sighs, with downcast eyes,
but one who has your own
sweet simple winning ways,
that when you're near
you tell my aching heart.

I'd like a girl like you,
a girl with pretty eyes of blue,
your style and grace,
your pretty face,
and the twinkle in your eye,
your pretty golden hair,
the blushes on your cheeks so fair,
they make me sigh,
now do we wonder why,
I'd like a girl like you.

I'd like a girl like you,
a girl with pretty eyes of blue,
your style and grace,
your pretty face,
and the twinkle in your eye,
your pretty golden hair,
the blushes on your cheeks so fair,
they make me sigh,
now do we wonder why,
I'd like a girl like you.

I really am quite flattered, sir,
at what you've said,
but I am shy, yet I will try,
to tell you in my simple way
that may be I could like you too,
would that suit you?
I'll not be angry
if you hold my hand a while
just a trial, please don't smile,
so if you're really serious
I think a kiss,
would tell you that you won me
when you said.

I'd like a girl like you,
a girl with pretty eyes of blue,
your style and grace,
your pretty face,
and the twinkle in your eye,
your pretty golden hair,
the blushes on your cheeks so fair,
they make me sigh,
now do we wonder why,
I'd like a girl like you.

I'd like a girl like you,
a girl with pretty eyes of blue,
your style and grace,
your pretty face,
and the twinkle in your eye,
your pretty golden hair,
the blushes on your cheeks so fair,
they make me sigh,
now do we wonder why,
I'd like a girl like you.
