Analysis of Dearest Darling
Of all the girls I've ever met
You're the one I cannot forget
Your love is like a pot of gold
Hard to get and hard to hold.
Our eyes have met
Our lips not yet
Don't worry girl
I'll get you yet
Some people think a kiss is a sin
If so tell me girl where did it all begin
Adam kissed Eve, Eve kissed another
So why in the world can't we kiss each other
Nevertheless all the same
Sorry 'ol girl can't sign my name
I LOVE YOU
