Isobel Anderson The Proposal song lyrics

I love you like a flower loves a bee,

Come pollinate me.

And just like the birds up in the trees,

I melt into honey when you sing to me.

And when I look at you I'm 16 again,

It's like I've only just discovered men.

I giggle and play with my hair,

When you look at me with that brooding stare.

You've traveled all over the world,

I sometimes wonder if you've found yourself a girl.

Maybe you'd like the girls round here.

I think you'd like it sound here so,

Come and visit me in Belfast,

If you come once I know you'll come twice,

I don't have to be your girlfriend,

Just to know how to make you feel nice.

And if you came to visit we'd sit by the river,

And get ourselves into a drunken stuper,

And maybe we would go to a bar I sometime visit,

Maybe it would go a little like this.

Black velvet to loosen your nerves,

Whisky mac to get you saying those words,

A Baileys on ice to round of the night,

And all that's left is to head back to mine.
