This is my first affair, so please be kind

Handle my heart with care, oh, please be kind

This is all so grand, my dreams are on parade

If you'll just hold my hand, they'll never, ever fade



So tell me your love's sincere, oh, please be kind

Tell me I needn't fear, oh, please be kind

'cause if you leave me dear, I know my heart will lose its mind

If you love me, please be kind



Tell me your love's sincere, oh, please be kind

Tell me I needn't fear, oh, please be kind

'cause if you leave me dear, I know my heart will lose its mind

If you love me please please be kind
