Winds may blow over the icy sea
I'll take with me the warmth of thee A taste of honey A taste much sweeter than wine I will return I'll return I'll come back for the honey and you I'll leave behind my heart to wear And may it e'er remind you of A taste of honey A taste much sweeter than wine I will return I'll return I'll come back for the honey and you He ne'er came back to his love so fair And so she died dreaming of his kiss His kiss of honey A taste more bitter than wine I will return I will return I'll come back for the honey and you I'll come back for the honey and you! |

I heard me a sermonette
Have you heard it yet? With that soulful message That you won't soon forget It tells about real true love People lost sight of Through their sinful livin' And scornin' heaven above It tells you to love one another To feel that each man's your brother Live right, 'cause you know That you reap what you sow And so to have no regrets And to find what you're missin' Bow your head and listen To this sermonette It tells you to love one another To feel that each man's your brother Live right, 'cause you know That you reap just what you sow And so to have no regrets And to find what you're missin' Bow your head and listen To this sermonette Bow your head and listen To this sermonette |

It's only human for anyone to want to be in love
But who wants to be in love in vain? At night you hang around the hall And eat your heart out And cry your eyes out And rack your brains You sit and wonder why anyone as wonderful as she Should cause you such misery and pain I thought that I would be in Heaven But I'm only up a tree 'Cause it's just my luck to be in love in vain You sit and wonder why anyone as wonderful as he Should cause you such misery and pain I thought that I would be in Heaven But I'm only up a tree 'Cause it's just my luck to be in love in vain |

Smell the gravy simmerin' nearly half a mile away Lady morning glory, I say good morning to you Chirpy little chickadee told me that my baby was true Well, she really ran to get her frying pan When she saw me coming Gonna get a taste before it goes to waste This honeybee's humming Mister Weeping Willow, I'm through with all of my faults 'cause my baby's ready to do the ever new gravy waltz Well, she really ran to get her frying pan When she saw me coming I'm gonna get a taste before it goes to waste This honeybee's humming Mister Weeping Willow, I'm through with all of my faults 'cause my baby's ready to do the ever new gravy waltz Mr Weeping Willow, I'm through with all of my faults 'cause my baby is ready to do the ever new gravy, Mmm, nice gravy dear, waltz. |

Oh, the good life, full of fun
Seems to be the ideal Yes, the good life lets you hide All the sadness you feel You won't really fall in love For you can't take the chance So be honest with yourself Don't try to fake romance It's the good life To be free and explore the unknown Like the heartaches When you learn you must face them alone Please, remember, I still love you And in case you don't know Well, just wake up Kiss the good life "hello" |

It begins to tell 'round midnight, midnight
I do pretty well till after sundown Supper time I'm feelin' sad But it really gets bad 'round midnight Memories always start 'round midnight Haven't got the heart to stand those memories When my heart is still with you And ol' midnight knows it too When a quarrel we had needs mending Does it mean that our love is ending? Darlin', I need you; lately I find You're out of my heart and I'm out of my mind Let our hearts take wings 'round midnight, midnight Let the angels sing for your returning Till our love is safe and sound And old midnight comes around Feelin' sad really gets bad 'Round, 'round, 'round midnight |

Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice,
Warmer than the Summer night. The clouds were like an alabaster palace, Rising to a snowy height. Each star its own Aurora Borealis, Suddenly you held me tight, I could see the midnight sun. I can't explain the silver rain that found me, Or was that a moonlit veil? The music of the universe around me, Or was that a nightingale? And then your arms miraculously found me, Suddenly the sky turned pale, I could see the midnight sun. Was there such a night? It's still a thrill I don't quite believe; But after you were gone There was still some stardust on my sleeve! The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, And the stars forget to shine, And we may see the meadow in December, Icy white and crystalline. But oh, my darlin', always I'll remember When your lips were close to mine, And I saw the midnight sun. The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, And the stars forget to shine, And we may see the meadow in December, Icy white and crystalline. But oh, my darlin', always I'll remember When your lips were close to mine, And I saw the midnight sun, The midnight sun, The midnight sun, The midnight sun. |
