Lyrics : Gideon Briggs, I Love You

Nesting dove or flying lark
I wish me Gideon, day and dark
Flying lark or nesting dove
I wish me Gideon for my love

Dorrie!
Dorrie!
Dorrie?

Yes, Gideon?

I've something to say to you
It's been waiting inside me like a long hunger
It makes me want to shout

And sing it out
And to leave you no doubt when I say
Dorrie, I dearly love you
Love you
There it is, plain as daylight
I love you
Love you
Love you with all my heart

It's my hope to marry you
If you'll have me

Gideon Briggs, I
Believe your shirt needs a mеnd
I'll sew it

What's that got to do with love?

'Tis a way of showing it

I'll not spell it in fancy еmbroidery
Nor bake it into a bilberry tart
Dorrie, I dearly
Love you
Love you
Love you with all my heart

Gideon Briggs, I
Gideon Briggs, I
Oh, I wish I were brazen and bold
Instead of so ladylike shy
For then as we meet, I'll not gape at my feet
But I'd look at him straight in the eye
And I'd shout
And I'd sing it out
And I'd leave him no doubt when I say

Gideon Briggs, I love you
Love you
There it is, plain as daylight
I love you
Love you
Love you with all my heart

I'll not spell it in fancy embroidery
Nor bake it into a bilberry tart
Gideon Briggs, I
Love you
Love you
Love you with all my heart
