[She:] Do you love me true?
[He:] Cross my heart, I do.
[She:] Now we understand each other, dear.
[He:] Let's marry on the spot!
[She:] I would but I
[He:] But what?
[She:] My Uncle would object to you, I fear.
But you're my only hope...
[He:] If so, then let's elope
[She:] I never thought of that,
let's do it now.
[He:] Well, as long as it's alright,
we can wait until tonight
[She:] We must arrange it secretly,
but how?
[He:] I'll be waiting 'neath your window,
I'll be waiting there for you.
I'll have on my travelling clothes, dear
and my little grip packed too.
[She:] In the garden there's a ladder
Let me tell you what to do
When you place it 'neath my window
whistle.......

[He:] Ev'rything's prepared
[She:] I'm a little scared.
[He:] You should trust me, dear,
in ev'rything....
[She:] But you look frightened too
[He:] I frightened not
[She:] You do!
[He:] I wonder where on earth
I put the ring.
I thought I had it here
[She:] Now what's the matter dear
[He:] I've lost the ring,
the beastly thing's so small!
[She:] Well I refuse to wait,
and postpone our wedding date...
[He:] We needn't
for I've found it after all.

[He:] I'll be waiting 'neath your window,
I'll be waiting there for you.
I'll have on my travelling clothes, dear
and my little grip packed too.
[She:] In the garden there's a ladder
Let me tell you what to do
When you place it 'neath my window
whistle.......
