Charles French / Isham Jones



We started walking out together
We started talking ‘bout the weather
One little word led to another
I knew right away what I’d like to say to you

And then we’d talk a little longer
And all the while my love grew stronger
One little word led to another
The look in my eyes was putting you wise, I knew

We kept saying the same thing over
But every time it sounded new
I kept thinking what you’d be thinking
If I should steal a kiss or two

And then we walked beneath the moonlight
And while we talked beneath the moonlight
One little word led to another
And what did I do but say I’m in love with you.
