Lyrics
There is a flower within my heart,
Daisy, Daisy!
Planted one day by a glancing dart,
Planted by Daisy Bell!
Whether she loves me or loves me not,
Sometimes it’s hard to tell;
Yet I am longing to share the lot
Of beautiful Daisy Bell!
Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer, do.
I’m half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage,
I can’t afford a carriage,
But you’ll look sweet, on the seat
Of a bicycle built for two.
We will go ‘tandem’ as man and wife,
Daisy, Daisy!
‘Peddling’ away down the road of life,
I and my Daisy Bell!
When the road’s dark we can both despise
P’licemen and ‘lamps’ as well;
There are ‘bright lights’ in the dazzling eyes
Of beautiful Daisy Bell
Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer, do.
I’m half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage,
I can’t afford a carriage
But you’ll look sweet on the seat
Of a bicycle built for two.
I will stand by you in “wheel” or woe,
Daisy, Daisy,
You’ll be the bell which I’ll ring, you know,
Sweet little Daisy Bell!
You’ll take the lead in each trip we take,
Then, if I don’t do well
I will permit you to use the brake,
My beautiful Daisy Bell !
Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer, do.
I’m half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage,
I can’t afford a carriage
But you’ll look sweet on the seat
Of a bicycle built for two.
