When You Know Why 1912

Cupid is smart, he knows his part,
he is so wise and nervy;
mischief he'll make, just for the sake
of all the sport and fun.
Since Cupid's dart punctured my heart,
things are turned topsyturvy,
wishing for you,
hoping that two
hearts may soon beat as one.

Perhaps, you'll soon know why,
whenever you are nigh,
I cannot help but sigh,
although I try and try and try,
Perhaps, you'll some day know
why my heart's beating so;
will you care, my dearie,
some day when you know why?

Perhaps, you'll soon know why,
whenever you are nigh,
I cannot help but sigh,
although I try and try and try,
Perhaps, you'll some day know
why my heart's beating so;
will you care, my dearie,
some day when you know why?

If you but knew, what would you do?
What would you say about it?
Would the world seem just like a dream
filled with the bright sunshine?
If love should start down in your heart,
how could you do without it?
While life endures,
I would be yours,
and you would be all mine.

Perhaps, you'll soon know why,
whenever you are nigh,
I cannot help but sigh,
although I try and try and try,
Perhaps, you'll some day know
why my heart's beating so;
will you care, my dearie,
some day when you know why?

Perhaps, you'll soon know why,
whenever you are nigh,
I cannot help but sigh,
although I try and try and try,
Perhaps, you'll some day know
why my heart's beating so;
will you care, my dearie,
some day when you know why?
