Lover lyrics
by Richard Rodgers
Lover, when I'm near you and I hear you speak my name
Softly, in my ear, you breathe a flame
Lover, when we're dancing, keep on glancing in my eyes
'Til love's own entrancing music dies
All of my future is in you
You're every plan I design
Promise you'll always continue
To be mine
Lover, please be tender
When you're tender, fears depart
Lover, I surrender
To my heart
Lover, it's immoral
But why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips of coral want to kiss
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you, I try
But if you didn't continue
I would die
Lover, please be tender
When you're tender, fears depart
Lover, I surrender
To my heart
