They kissed and they hugged
Beneath the yellow moon, and the stars above,
Without a care or worry on their minds!

Mom and Dad were waiting for them to come home
Praying that they were all right!
It's a quarter to three, where could they be?
They never stayed out this late!

Then at the front door they'll hear them kiss,
And they wonder, if there's an end to this?
Then the girl walks in, and says, "Mother, I'm in love!"

"I'm in love with that man of mine,
And we're getting married just as soon as we can!"
"We'll tie the knot, and
No more worry will come to you!"

Mom and Dad are waiting for them to come home,
But they won't be returning!
The years will go by, and then you'll wonder why
Your son has been out so late!

Then at the front door you'll hear them kiss,
And you'll ask yourself, "if there's an end to this?"
Your boy will walk in, and say, "Daddy, I'm in love!"

"Yes, I'm in love with that gal of mine,
And we're getting married just as soon as we can!"
"We'll tie the knot, and
No more worry will come to you!"
