Oh Dear, What Can the Matter Be
OH DEAR, WHAT CAN THE MATTER BE
Oh dear, what can the matter be
I was such a fool, I couldn’t foresee.
Whenever we met on a date he came early
I could see his interest in me grow clearly.
After pleasant evenings he’d just say goodbye
Go away without a smile, I wondered why.
I didn’t know how so fast two years passed us by
My dreams grew, I saw in him the man I could rely.
Time has now come when on date he comes late
I believe whatever reasons he prefers to state.
Last time after we met he departed with a smile
Set my confused mind to ponder for a long while.
A different person in him I could see
Before it’s late I’m glad I could make me free.
Some time we enjoy situations not so funny
Asking the question : what can the matter be.
