I love your lovin' arms,
They hold a world of charms,
A place to nestle when I am lonely.
A cosy Morris chair,
Oh, what a happy pair!
One caress,
Happiness
Seems to bless my little honey.

I love you more each day;
When years have passed away,
You'll find my love belongs to you only;
'Cause when the world seems wrong,
Then I know that I belong
Right in my honey's lovin' arms.

I love you more each day;

Oh, when the world seems wrong,
Then I know that I belong
Right in my honey's lovin' arms.
