Oh, hither and thither and yon
Around the world I've gone
Searching for true love
As so many do
Hither and thither and yon
From Cairo to far off Calay
I traveled on and on
Seeking that someone
Who's heart wouldn't stray
Hither and thither and yon
Alas, I wondered
Through many a land
Too blind was I to see
True love was always close at hand
As close as you were to me
My journey is over
It's good to be home
Your face, I gaze upon
And darling, I wonder
Oh, why did I roam
Hither and thither and yon
(Hither and yon)
Hither and thither and yon
(Thither and yon)
Hither and thither and yon
I Would Like To Be Your Mare
I would like to be your lady
I would like to be your gal
I would like to be anything
Not just your pal
I would do anything to keep this love of yours
Flowing through you and flowing through me
Dear, I want your love to stay with me throughout the years
And I want you to be mine eternally
So if you say "I do" to me, I'll say "I do" to you
There could be nothing wrong with you being one plus me being two
I tenderly will call your name every day
And you'll want to love me whenever I say:
"I would like to be your mare
I would like to be your gal
I would like to be anything
Not just your pal
I would do anything to keep this love of yours
Flowing through you and flowing through me
Dear, I want your love to stay with me throughout the years
And I want you to be mine eternally."
When my heart and our heart decide to combine
Every day will feel just like a valentine
Our love will never die, it's only beginning
These are the words that through song I'm saying:
"I would like to be your mare
I would like to be your gal
I would like to be anything
Not just your pal
I would do anything to keep this love of yours
Flowing through you and flowing through me
Dear, I want your love to stay with me throughout the years
And I want you to be mine eternally"
