Would You? 1936

I've been reading such romantic stories
Tales of love that set the heart aflame,
Pages that entrance
with a new romance,
but each plot is really quite the same.

He holds her in his arms,
would you? would you?
He tells her of his charms
would you? would you?
They met as you and I
and they were only friends,
but before the story ends
he'll kiss her with a sigh
would you? would you?
If the girl were I,
would you? would you?
and would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they,
I would, would you?

He holds her in his arms,
would you? would you?
He tells her of his charms
would you? would you?
They met as you and I
and they were only friends,
but before the story ends
he'll kiss her with a sigh
would you? would you?
If the girl were I,
would you? would you?
and would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they,
I would, would you?

You may tell me romance has departed,
Modern ways have altered it but still
Each old lover knew
how a girl to woo
don't you from this picture get a thrill?

He holds her in his arms,
would you? would you?
He tells her of his charms
would you? would you?
They met as you and I
and they were only friends,
but before the story ends
he'll kiss her with a sigh
would you? would you?
If the girl were I,
would you? would you?
and would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they,
I would, would you?

He holds her in his arms,
would you? would you?
He tells her of his charms
would you? would you?
They met as you and I
and they were only friends,
but before the story ends
he'll kiss her with a sigh
would you? would you?
If the girl were I,
would you? would you?
and would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they,
I would, would you?
