Sweet and lovely Sweeter than the roses in May Sweet and lovely Heaven must have sent her my way. Skies above me Never were as blue as her eyes; And she loves me Who would want a sweeter surprise? When she nestles in my arms so tenderly There's a thrill that words cannot express. In my heart a song of love is taunting me Melody haunting me. Sweet and lovely Sweeter than the roses in May And she loves me There is nothing more I can say
