Please, say you’ll marry me (song)


from the ABC set Lyrics

This seems like the perfect time;
the moons so bright and the moods sublime;
a romantic restaurant.
I am hoping this is what you want.

The band is playing our song;
I’ve rehearsed this moment for so long;
the head waiter is on his way
with a diamond ring on a silver tray.

Please, say you’ll marry me
and you’ll carry me away
on wings of ecstasy
for forever and a day.

Say that you’ll be my bride,
I’m lost inside without you.
My love is bonafide.
It’s eternal and it’s true.

Now I’m down upon my knees
praying i won’t make a mess of this;
praying you’ll say ‘yes’ to me,
because this is my big chance at bliss.

Looking up into your eyes,
I am so unsure what you will say.
Will I just go home and cry
or will we make plans for our wedding day?

Please, say you’ll marry me
and you’ll carry me away
on wings of ecstasy
for forever and a day.

Say that you’ll be my bride,
I’m lost inside without you.
My love is bonafide.
It’s eternal and it’s true.

I thought this was tender and romantic, well-wisher - really nice sentiments and well-written.

Thanks, Sue. I haven't seen many songs about making a marriage proposal and I'm always on the look out for niches to fill.

I am quite romantic, in my way. I find it impossible to write romantic fiction but quite easy to pour out romantic song lyrics.
