Oscar Hammerstein - People Will Say We're In Love Lyrics
Why do they think up stories that link my name with yours?Why do the neighbors gossip all day behind their doors?I know a way to prove what they say is quite untrueHere is the gistA practical list of don'ts fer youDon't throw bouquets at meDon't please my folks too muchDon't laugh at my jokes too muchPeople will say we're in loveLaughs at your jokes-Don't sigh and gaze at meYour sighs are so like mineYour eyes musn't glow like minePeople will say we're in love!Don't start collecting thingsGive me my rose and my gloveSweetheart, they're suspecting thingsPeople will say we're in love!Some people claim that you're to blame as much as IWhy do you take the trouble to bake my favorite pie?Grantin' your wish, I carved our initals on that treeJust keep a slice of all the advice you give so freeDon't praise my charm too muchDon't look so vain with meDon't stand in the rain with mePeople will say we're in loveDon't take my arm too muchDon't keep your hand in mineYour hand feels so grand in minePeople will say we're in love!Don't dance all night with me'Til the stars fade from aboveThey'll see it's all right with mePeople will say we're in love
