People Will Say We're in Love

Why do they think up stories that link my name with yours?

Why do the neighbors chatter all day behind their doors?

I know a way to prove what they say is quite untrue

Here is the gist a practical list of, 'Don'ts' for you

Don't throw bouquets at me

Don't please my folks too much

Don't laugh at my jokes too much

People will say we're in love

Don't sigh and gaze at me

Your sighs are so like mine

Your eyes mustn't glow like mine

People will say we're in love

Don't start collecting things

Give me my rose and my glove

Sweetheart they're suspecting things

People will say we're in love

Don't praise my charm too much

Don't look so vain with me

Don't stand in the rain with me

People will say we're in love

Don't take my arm too much

Don't keep your hand in mine

Your hand feels so grand in mine

People will say we're in love

Don't dance all night with me

Till the stars fade from above

They'll see it's alright with me

People will say we're in love
