Lyrics

I'll promise you a gift worth much more if not sold
Half for you and half for me if I may act so bold
I'll promise you a home that money cannot buy
All good homely spirits walking by and by

I'll promise you a world of making of amend
And on our anniversary invite you round the bend

I'll promise you a life it only takes a tick
All the fruits of life carry you aboard my ship
I'll promise you a world of making of amend
And on the anniversary invite you round the bend

Don't feign to me you're only acting when you care
So I've decided on decisions that will not strike you very fair

Let's devise a plan and we'll think about it twice
Sketching watercolour paints, bury hatchets in the ice

Don't feign to me you're only acting when you care
So we decided on decisions that will not strike you very fair

Let's devise a plan and we'll think about it twice
Let's make mates merry, bury hatchets in the ice

Don't feign to me you're only acting when you care
So we decided on decisions that will not strike you very fair

Now let's devise a plan and we'll think about it twice
Let's make mates merry, bury hatchets in the ice

Don't feign to me you're only acting when you care
So we decided on decisions that will not strike you very fair

Now let's devise a plan and we'll think about it twice
Sketching watercolour paints, bury hatchets in the ice
