Lida Rose, Will I Ever Tell You (Extrait De La Comédie Musicale « the Music Man ») - Shirley Jones

Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose

To get the sun back in the sky

Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose

About a thousand kisses shy

Ding dong ding

I can hear the chapel bell chime

Ding dong ding

At the least suggestion

I’ll pop the question

Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose

Without a sweetheart to my name

Lida Rose, how everyone knows

That I am hoping you’re the same

So here is my love song

Not fancy or fine

Lida Rose, oh won’t you be…

Mine, Lida Rose, oh Lida Rose,

Oh Lida Rose…

(Marian)

Dream of now

Dream of then

Dream of a love song

That might have been

Do I love you?

Oh yes, I love you

And I’ll bravely tell you

But only when we dream again

Sweet and low

Sweet and low

How sweet that mem’ry

How long ago

Forever

Oh yes, forever

Will I ever tell you?

Oh no.
