Sweet one, fairer than the flowers Never will I meet one sweeter than you Would you turn away, or could you really learn to care If I ever dare to say, "I love you" If the nightingales could sing like you They'd sing much sweeter than they do For you've brought a new kind of love to me If the sandman brought me dreams of you I'd want to sleep my whole life through For you've brought a new kind of love to me Bridge I know that you're the slave, I'm the queen But still, you can understand That underneath it all, I'm a maid, and you are only a man I would work and slave the whole day through If I could hurry home to you For you brought a new kind of love to me
