WhenGm I was appDmrenticed in GmLondon, I A#went to sDmee my dGmear
The cGmandles aDmll were burGmning, the A#moon shone brDmight and cleGmar
I knA#ocked upon her window to ease her out of her pDain
She rGmose Dmup to lGmet me iA#n, then barrDed the door agGmain
GmI like well yDmour beGmhavior and thA#is I Dmoften sGmay
I cGmannot Dmrest contGmented when A#I am fDmar awGmay
The roA#ads they are so muddy, we cannot walk abDout
So rGmoll me Dmin your aGmrms, A#Love, and blDow the candles Gmout
Your fGmather Dmand your mGmother in yA#onder rDmoom do lGmie
A-hGmugging oDmne anGmother, so wA#hy not Dmyou and GmI'
A-hA#ugging one another, without a fear or dDoubt
So rGmoll me Dmin your Gmarms, LA#ove, and blDow the candles Gmout
I prGmay thee spDmeak more sGmoftly of wA#hat we hDmave to Gmdo
Lest tGmhat our Dmnoise of taGmlking should mA#ake our plDmeasure rGmue
The strA#eets they are so nigh, Love, the people walk aDbout
They mGmay peep Dmin and sGmpy, LA#ove, so blDow the candles oGmut
And Gmif we prDmove succGmessful, Love, plA#ease name it aDmfter Gmme
TrGmeat it nDmeat and kiGmss it sweet and dA#aft it Dmon your kGmnee
When mA#y three years are over, my time it will be oDut
And GmI will Dmpay my dGmebt to yA#ou by blDowing the candles Gmout.
