- Chorus:
- If I give my heart to you,
will you handle it with care?
Will you always treat me tenderly, and in every way be fair?
- If I give my heart to you,
will you give me all your love?
Will you swear that you'll be true to me, by the light that shines
above?
- And will you sigh with me
when I'm sad, Smile with me when I'm glad,
And always be as you are with me tonight.
- Think it over and be sure,
Please don't answer till you do,
When you promise all these things to me, Then I'll give my heart
to you.
