To make you stay dear girl, to make you stay,
I'll hide you away in the night time.
No one will find you under my right arm.
Don't you feel happy when it's all done?
Don't you feel sad when you've lost someone?
Dear, dear stay till the dawn comes in;
Teach me to be a summer's morning.
Don't say no, don't smile now and say no;
Give me a smile when the night is gone;
Teach me to be a winter's blossom.
Dear, dear, dear I once had a Starling;
Dear, dear, dear a pretty little darling;
Dear, dear, dear but she flew away in the night time,
From under my right arm.
I'll hide you away in the night time.
No one will find you under my right arm.
Don't you feel happy when it's all done?
Don't you feel sad when you've lost someone?

Dear, dear, dear I once had a Starling;

Dear, dear, dear but she flew away in the night time,
