Lyrics
- Now we’re alone again
Call me your own again
For I have flown again to your breast
I hate a gang around
Why did they hang around?
When we are married
We will escape the rest
And we’ll seek a quiet nest
Refrain
Then let us start for honeymoon land
We’ll take the L-O-V-E-line
It’s sweet to know that we will soon land
Where climbing honeysuckles twine
For all the rails are magic metal
And all the ties are wedding ties
Along the road to Honeymoon land
It’s just this side of Paradise
- Upon the road of love
We’ll learn the code of love
We’ll sing an ode of love as we go
Close side by side with you
I want to ride with you
We’ll be together
That is enough to know
Where the honeymoon beams glow
