Not Yet 1918 'Oh Lady! Lady!!'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 03 Mar 2005

I cannot see
what need there can be
for any other people in the world
but you, and me.
Yes, go where we may,
they get in our way;
I wish we could contrive it
now and then to get a word in private!

Oh dear! won't it be just splendid
in the time that's coming soon,
when, this weary waiting ended,
we start our honeymoon;
none near us to see or hear us,
the whole wide world
we will forget.
Oh, what joy to stay in your arms all day
but not yet ummm not yet.

Oh dear! won't it be just splendid
in the time that's coming soon,
when, this weary waiting ended,
we start our honeymoon;
none near us to see or hear us,
the whole wide world
we will forget.
Oh, what joy to stay in your arms all day
but not yet ummm not yet.

Each time I start
to pour out my heart,
some tactless person comes along
and we are driven apart,
life might be, my pet, a lovely duet;
but all these folks who bore us
seem to think that we require a chorus.

Oh dear! won't it be just splendid
in the time that's coming soon,
when, this weary waiting ended,
we start our honeymoon;
none near us to see or hear us,
the whole wide world
we will forget.
Oh, what joy to stay in your arms all day
but not yet ummm not yet.

Oh dear! won't it be just splendid
in the time that's coming soon,
when, this weary waiting ended,
we start our honeymoon;
none near us to see or hear us,
the whole wide world
we will forget.
Oh, what joy to stay in your arms all day
but not yet ummm not yet.
