Thee I Love From ‘Friendly Persuasion’ Songtext
von The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Thee I love, more than the meadows so green and still
More than the mulberries on the hill
More than the buds on the mayapple tree
I love thee
Arms have I, strong as the oak, for this occasion
Lips have I, to kiss thee too, in friendly persuasion
This I know
Though I don′t know many words of praise
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
So put on your bonnet, your cane and your cowl
And come with me
For thee I love
Thee I love, more than the meadows so green and still More than the mulberries on the hill
More than the buds on the mayapple tree
I love thee
Arms have I, eager are they for this occasion
Lips have I, to kiss thee too, in friendly persuasion
This I know
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
Long have I waited to hear thee say
Put on your bonnet, your cane and your cowl
And come with me
For thee I love
And come with me
