When some ones step comes up the walk
Your cheeks take on a roster hue,
And though no other hears his knock,
You hear it well--you know you do!
And when his arm steals round your chair
You give a smothered scream or two,
AS if you didn't want it there
Bat, 0, you do-you know you DO!
You let him kiss your blushing check,
Somehow your lips meet his lips, too;
You tempt him pretty things to speak
You wicked nirt-you know you do!
And when he timidly doth press
His wish to make Il wife OF you,
With happy heart. you answer, yes
You darling gir-you know you do!
