Hesitating Beauty

[Verse 1]
For your sparkling cocky smile
I've walked a million miles
Begging you to come and wed me in the spring
Why do you, my dear, delay?
What makes you laugh and turn away?
You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee

[Chorus]
Well, I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above, we could spend our lives in love
You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee

[Verse 2]
We can build a house and home
Where the flowers come to bloom
Around our yard, I'll nail a fence so high
That the boys with peeping eyes
Cannot see that angel face
My hesitating beauty, Nora Lee

[Chorus]
Well I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above, we could spend our lives in love
If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee

[Verse 3]
We can ramble hand in hand across the grasses of our land
I'll kiss you for each leaf on every tree
We can bring our kids to play where the dry leaves blow today
If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee

[Chorus]
Well I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above, we could spend our lives in love
If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee
