On with the Dance the Musical - First love Lyrics
Music and lyrics by Noël Coward.
HE:
If you could only realize
And knew how 1 idealize
The very slightest thing
You say or do.
SHE :
I've guessed and felt a little bit
Depressed because
I know that it Leads to complications,
Think of your relations'
Point of view.
HE:
First love,
Completely unrehearsed love,
Has all the spontaneity of youth.
SHE :
Well, to tell the truth,
I am quite unversed, love,
In treating suirably
These adolescent scenes;
You're indisputably
The victim of you teens.
New love must always seem the true love,
Experience will teach you as you go,
Till you really know
Just the way to woo, love.
HE:
I wish you'd show me how my passion
should be nursed,
SHE:
Your papa must raise my wages first, love.
HE:
I've burned to kiss your darling hand,
And yearned to make you understand
That you're the only one In life for me!
SHE:
I fear I can't reciprocate,
But, dear, I do appreciatc
Having made you suffer,
Darling little duffer,
You'll soon see.
SHE:
First love Is generally the worst love.
HE:
I'm trying to restrain it all the time.
I've a feeling
I'm really going to burst, love.
SHE :
I fully realize
Your true romantic soul,
But you must utilize
A little self-control.
HE:
Calf love Is never half and half love,
To me you're just the fairest of your sex.
How I love you.
SHE:
Excuse me if I laugh, love.
HE:
Let's plunge in passion till
we're totally immersed.
SHE:
I shall have to ask my husband first, love.
Review: On with the Dance the Musical Lyrics
On with the Dance the Musical Lyrics
Cosmopolitan lady
I'm so in love
Poor little rich girl
First love
Couldn't we keep on dancing?
Raspberry time in Runcorn
Spinsters' song
The vicarage dance
Choir boys' song
Even clergymen are naughty now and then
Church parade
Come a little closer
