To know you, is to love you,

And I love you . . . 'cause I know you . . .

Are such a sweetheart . . . that when you walk down the street,

Everyone's heart, just naturally skips a beat!



The others, who have met you,

Better start in . . . to forget you . . .

Because, to know you is to love you so,

It's time for everyone you know,

To know you . . . love me!



Were you the sun, it would be twice as sunny,

Were you a bee, there would be sweeter honey,

Were you a tune everyone would be croonin'

Harmonizin' out in the street!

You're such a bundle of me oh my,

And that's the reason when you go by,

Each heart naturally skips a beat!



Dear . . .



The others . . .

( Were you the spring, you would be twice as springy! )

Who have met you . . .

( Were you a vine, you would be twice as clingy! )

Better start in . . .

( Were you the moon, everyone would be spoonin'! )

To forget you . . .

( Every night would be mighty sweet! )

Because, to know you is to love you so,

It's time for everyone you know,

To know you . . . love me!



Because, to know you is to love you so,

It's time for everyone you know,

To know you . . . everyone should know you . . .

Know . . . yes, know . . . you love me!
