Robins And Roses.

Seq - Dr. J. Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. July 2000.

I simply can't resist,
becoming an optimist,

And if you please,
Your love is causing me,
to sing you a rhapsody in many keys.

I've got your future arranged for,
Under conditions like these:

Robins and Roses and maybe a tree,
A few morning glories, A cottage two stories high,

Robins and Roses,
and your love for me,
To live on forever and my love to never die.

A place where neighbours may drop in,
And smile when they see,

An armchair to flop in.
We can add to their glee,

Serving afternoon tea 'mid Robins and Roses,
And then life will be,

A poem by Kipling,
While troubles go rippling by.

Robins and Roses and maybe a tree,
A few morning glories, A cottage two stories high,

Robins and Roses,
and your love for me,
To live on forever and my love to never die.

A place where neighbours may drop in,
And smile when they see,

An armchair to flop in.
We can add to their glee,

Serving afternoon tea 'mid Robins and Roses,
And then life will be,

A poem by Kipling,
While troubles go rippling by.

Music by Joe Burke
Lyric by Edgar Leslie
Thanks to some helpful remarks from "Ernie"
I have done this song like this so musicians like him
don't get all upset.
I hope the use of proper instruments won't have shaken too many listeners!
