If you hear music when he is near you,
And Christmas comes every day of the year,
Then you must know why it's the first clue
That the moment of truth is near!

If every time he glances your way,
A million bells start to ring loud and clear,
And after one kiss you yell "Mayday!",
Then the moment of truth is near!

There will come a day when he looks at you,
Thrills you through and through and calls your name;
That will be the day when you say "I do!",
'Cause you've discovered that you've grown tired of playing the game!

And then you both know you're through with schemin',
"Oh promise me!" starts to sing in your ear;
You're wide awake, girl, you're not dreamin',
'Cause when you say "I do!",
The moment of truth at last is here!

And then you both know you're through with schemin',
"Oh promise me!" starts to sing in your ear;
You're wide awake, girl, you're not dreamin',
'Cause when you say "I do!",
The moment of truth at last is here!
