歌詞
How does a bridesmaid meet her groom?
How can she tell when it's too soon?
He tells her such lovely words
They're just like those bees and birds
Making love so high
They may forget to fly
And fall down in each other's arms
What a handsome sight
Of love that falls from flight
And birds that sing such sweet alarms
Out of the dark and winter's gloom
How does a rosebud come to bloom?
Tucked down in their forest beds
Two young rosebuds lose their heads
Making love so soon
They may too early bloom
And freeze before they know the cost
What a handsome scene
When love won't wait for spring
And rosebuds frozen in the frost
How does a bridesmaid meet her groom?
God, can you send me someone soon?
Roses bound up in a vase
Grooms decked out in silk and lace
Handsome children and the food to fill them
And the love to freeze up all my fears
Fancy golden ring
And birds that love to sing
To fill this silence in my ears
