The Language Of Love 1919 Kern

[He:] In the lover's lucid way
of saying things
There's no delaying things
because he never even had to speak.
[She:] Speak to me in divine vernacular
and grow oracular before I shriek.
[He:] That was not a complete kiss
though 'twas really a sweet kiss
and I relished it nonetheless.
[She:] Ev'ry time we are kissing
nothing seems to be missing
Have you noticed how we progress.

[He:] Words by the ton won't help romance
as much as one soul stirring glance.
[She:] Understand
if you but squeeze my hand
I'll know what you would be telling me of.
[He:] Words are amiss, I've noticed
One tiny kiss means really more.
[She:] Please agree that when you speak to me
you'll use the
[Both:] wonderful language of love.

[He:] Words by the ton won't help romance
as much as one soul stirring glance.
[She:] Understand
if you but squeeze my hand
I'll know what you would be telling me of.
[He:] Words are amiss, I've noticed
One tiny kiss means really more.
[She:] Please agree that when you speak to me
you'll use the
[Both:] wonderful language of love.
