If We Had Met Before 1919 'My Golden Girl'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 13 Feb 2004

[Pope:] If only we had met before
how diff'rent things would be.
[Miss Randolph:] I've thought
the same thing o'er and o'er
if only we were free.
[Pope:] I wonder if my feelings, dear,
you possibly can guess.
[Miss R:] Perhaps were you to persevere
I might some day say yes.
[Both:] If we had met before, dear,
all the world I would give;
I have waited so long for you
the one that I adore.
Now at last I have found you
I could not love you more.
Yet how wonderful life would be
if we had but met before.
