Weep they will, will the lads
down the street
When they find that you're
promised to me.
Weep they will, as their heart's
lose a beat
At the thought you'll no longer
be free.
Oh, smug, am I; warm and snug am
I,
When you're close in my arms
just like this.
It's so easy to see they're
jealous of me.
There's so much love they will
miss.
Weep they will, at the sound of
the news
That we're seen all over the
town.
Eyes will fill, but they still
will refuse
To believe you've turned them
all down.
I don't blame them, I don't
blame them,
They've lost the sweet victory.
And weep they will, oh, weep
they will,
When they find you're promised
to me.
(Musical interlude)
I don't blame them, I don't
blame them,
They've lost the sweet victory.
And weep they will, oh, weep
they will,
When they find you're promised
to me.
