My darling, my darling
I've wanted to call you my darling
For many and many a day
My darling, my darling
I fluttered and fled like a starling
My courage just melted away
Now all at once you've kissed me
And there's not a thing I'm sane enough to say
Except my darling, my darling
Get used to the name of my darling
It's here to stay
Till a moment ago we were mister and miss
Discussing the weather, avoiding each other's eye
Till a moment ago when we happened to kiss
And we kissed the mister and miss goodbye
Now at last she can sigh
My darling, my darling
I've wanted to call you my darling
For many and many a day
My darling, my darling
I fluttered and fled like a starling
My courage just melted away
Now all at once you've kissed me
And there's not a thing I'm sane enough to say
Except my darling, my darling
Get used to the name of my darling
It's here to stay
