More I Cannot Wish You Lyrics
[Intro]
Sarah, dear
I've always taken care of you
All I want is for you to be happy
[Verse 1]
Velvet I can wish you
For the collar of your coat
And fortune smiling all along your way
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
Your own true love, this day
[Verse 2]
Mansions I can wish you
Seven footmen all in red
And calling cards upon a silver tray
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
Your own true love, this day
[Break]
Standing there
Gazing at you
Full of the bloom of youth
Standing there
Gazing at you
With a sheep's eye
And a lickerish tooth
[Verse 3]
Music I can wish you
Merry music while you're young
And wisdom when your hair has turned to gray
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
Your own true love this day
With a sheep's eye
And a lickerish tooth
And a-strong arms
To carry you away
