Lead Me To Love 1915

Tell me all about the game of love
all about the love
I'm dreaming of.
Ah, go on, ah, go on,
I believe you're only fooling.
I'm so very stupid at that game,
Stupid Mister Cupid never came.
ah go on, ah go on,
I'm afraid you need no schooling.
I'd like to take a lesson from you.
You tell me what you want me to do.

Lead me, oh, lead me to love.
Get away, get away,
for I'm on to you
Come be my own turtle dove
Not today, not today,
you will never do.
Come here, and Romeo me.
I fear that you don't know me.
I'll learn if you just show me how.
Now?
Yes! No! Please help
a poor lovesick Miss
Let me look, let me look,
till I find a cure.
I've never yet had a kiss,
get the hook, get the hook,
she's an amateur.
Loved I must be, dear.
Why pick on me, dear.
Lead me! Go on.
I want to be loved.

Lead me, oh, lead me to love.
Give her a kiss
give her a kiss.
while the lights are low.
Come be my own turtle dove.
Watch your step, watch your step,
or you'll stub your toe.
I'm sure, when you will know me,
You'll want to Romeo me.
Come over here and show me how.
Now? Yes! No!
Please, help a poor lovesick Miss.
Better look, better look,
till you find a cure.
I've never yet had a kiss,
Get the hook, get the hook,
she's an amateur.
Kiss me,
I'm anxious.
Not while I'm conscious
Lead me! Come on.
I want to be loved.

Take me in your arms and call me, dear,
Whisper little nothings in my ear.
Don't you dare, don't you dare,
take advantage of a stranger.
Listen to a maiden's earnest plea,
Won't you come and flirt with lovesick me.
I'm afraid, I'm afraid,
I'm afraid to flirt with danger.
I'd like to know just what it's about.
I'll show you,
if the lights will go out.

Lead me, oh, lead me to love.
Get away, get away,
for I'm on to you
Come be my own turtle dove
Not today, not today,
you will never do.
Come here, and Romeo me.
I fear that you don't know me.
I'll learn if you just show me how.
Now?
Yes! No! Please help
a poor lovesick Miss
Let me look, let me look,
till I find a cure.
I've never yet had a kiss,
get the hook, get the hook,
she's an amateur.
Loved I must be, dear.
Why pick on me, dear.
Lead me! Go on.
I want to be loved.

Lead me, oh, lead me to love.
Give her a kiss
give her a kiss.
while the lights are low.
Come be my own turtle dove.
Watch your step, watch your step,
or you'll stub your toe.
I'm sure, when you will know me,
You'll want to Romeo me.
Come over here and show me how.
Now? Yes! No!
Please, help a poor lovesick Miss.
Better look, better look,
till you find a cure.
I've never yet had a kiss,
Get the hook, get the hook,
she's an amateur.
Kiss me,
I'm anxious.
Not while I'm conscious
Lead me! Come on.
I want to be loved.
