By the stars and clouds above, we can spend our lives in love
If you'll quit your hesitating, Nora Lee
We can bring our kids to play where the dry leaves blow today
By the stars and clouds above, we can spend our lives in love
We can build a house and home where the flowers come to bloom
Well, I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
If you'll quit your hesitating, Nora Lee
You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee
We can ramble hand in hand across the grasses of our land
Of my hesitating beauty, Nora Lee
That the boys with peeping eyes cannot see that angel face
And I know I am twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
Well, I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know I am twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
And I know I am twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
I'll kiss you for each leaf on every tree
Well, I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above, we can spend our lives in love
Around our yard I'll nail a fence so high
Why do you my dear delay, what makes you laugh and turn away?
You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee
