The Honeysuckle and the Bee

The Honeysuckle and the Bee - Julie Andrews

On a summer afternoon

Where the honeysuckles bloom

When all nature seemed at rest

Eath a little rustic bower

Mid the perfume of the flower

A maiden sat with one she loved the best

As they sang the songs of love

From the arbour just above

Came a bee which lit upon the vine;

As it sipped the honey-dew

They both vowed they would be true

Then he whispered to her words she thought divine

You are my honey honeysuckle

I am the bee

I like to sip the honey sweet

From those red lips you see

I love you dearly dearly

And I want you to love me

You are my honey honeysuckle

I am the bee

So beneath that sky so blue

These two lovers fond and true

With their hearts so filled with bliss

Filled with bliss

As they sat there side by side

He asked her to be his bride

She answered yes and sealed it with a kiss

For her heart had yielded soon

Eath the honeysuckle bloom

And thro life they wander day by day

And he vowed just like the bee

I will build a home for thee

And the bee then seemed to answer them and say

You are my honey honeysuckle

I am the bee

I like to sip the honey sweet

From those red lips you see

I love you dearly dearly

And I want you to love me

You are my honey honeysuckle

I am the bee

You are my honey honeysuckle

I am the bee
