Lyrics

  1. My baby never told me exactly how I stand
    She even tries to scold me when I try to hold her hand
    My baby may be bashful, my baby may be shy
    But I’m happy, Oh! so happy, I’ll tell you why

Chorus
Oh! I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
‘Cause there ain’t no maybe in my baby’s eyes
Even though she don’t express it
She might just as well confess it
For there ain’t no maybe in my baby’s eyes
We sit each evening and never speak
I wish each evening could last a week
For I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
‘Cause there ain’t no maybe in my baby’s eyes

  1. Although our conversation is mostly just “Hello”
    That certain hesitation ev’ry time I start to go
    Her little way of saying that little word “Goodbye”
    Makes me happy, Oh! so happy, and here’s just why
