Take your little lips and kiss me, take your little arms and squeeze me
Let's live a little before we say goodbye
I'll draw my money out of the bank, I'll buy you roses and pretty things
So let's live a little before we say goodbye
You'll wear a yellow ribbon in your wavy hair
I'll wear the suit you like
And I'll wear the suit you like
And a big bow tie
We'll pretend we're happy though we know it's a lie
So let's live a little before we say goodbye
You'll be my queen of beauty
And I'll be proud of you, my cutie
So let's live a little before we say goodbye
Someday our hair will turn gray
And we will think of yesterday
So let's live a little before we say goodbye
The band will be playing a waltz just for two
And I will be saying, darling I'm sorry
I love you
We'll pretend we're happy though we know it's a lie
So let's live a little before we say goodbye
