Mother May I

Mother, may I, may I marry
I found my love, at last
Daughter, are you grown already
The years have gone, too fast

Mother, may I, may I marry
I know, our love is true
Listen daughter, let me tell you
What love should mean, to you

Love is patience, understanding
Love. let's little thoughts, go by unseen
If love is giving, not demanding
Nothing, big or small, can come between

Daughter, did you ask your father?
For that's what you, must do
Dad has given us, his blessing
He says, the same, as you

Love is patience, understanding
Love. let's little thoughts. go by unseen
If love is giving. not demanding
Nothing big or small. can come between

Mother. may I, may I marry
Mother. may I
