Lyrics

  1. Dearest, it’s simply beautiful
    Dearest, it’s really wonderful
    Think of all the happy days
    In store for you and me
    You can picture all the bliss
    If you’ll just imagine this

Chorus:
Can you imagine
Just a cozy little cottage
Can you imagine
One just built for you and me
Where roses bloom dear
In the morning night and noon, dear
And birdies chirp pretty tunes of love
In the trees above
To the preacher man we’ll wander
In the chapel over yonder
We must not ponder at Cupid’s call
And when we take that “golden oath”
The folks will say, “God bless you both”
Now think it over
Just imagine it that’s all

  1. Dearest, I’ll skip away to town
    Dearest, I’ll buy a wedding gown
    You go tell the preacher
    To be ready when we call
    Then how happy we will be
    When it’s all reality
