DIPLOMACY
TELL your love where the roses
blow,
And the hearts of the lilies quiver,
Not in the city's gleam and glow
But down by a half-sunned river
Not in the crowded ball-room's glare,
That would be fatal, Marie, Marie,
How can she answer you then and there?
So come then and stroll with me,
my dear,
Down where the birds call, Marie,
Marie.

And the hearts of the lilies quiver,

But down by a half-sunned river
Not in the crowded ball-room's glare,
That would be fatal, Marie, Marie,
How can she answer you then and there?
So come then and stroll with me,
my dear,
Down where the birds call, Marie,
