That lucky fellow, who gets you
Who knows you love him, and lets you
Oh, how he'll laugh when you play the clown
Oh, how he'll mope while he works in town

But with each long day behind him
The failing sunlight will find him 
Back in your arms, where he wants to be
How I'd want those arms, if I were he

That lucky lady who gets you
Who knows you love her, and lets you
Oh, how she'll laugh when you play the clown
Oh, how she'll mope while he works in town

But with each long day behind her
The failing sunlight will find her 
Back in your arms, where she wants to be
How I'd want those arms, if I were she
