[Lionel:]
There's a little maid I know.
She is so very sweet;
Though her charms it isn't easy to define.
She has eyes of deepest blue
Such as you seldom meet,
And they've got a way of looking into mine.
[Maidservants:]
Into thine,
[All:]
And they've got a way of looking
into mine/thine, into mine/thine.
[Lionel:]
And whate'er may be the lot
That our future lives may know,
Joy or sorrow, weal or woe,
Yet to me it matters not,
Just because I love her so,
Just because I love her so.
[Lionel:]
Now the sunshine of her smile
For a while makes you see
That the world is very bright and very fair,
And if ever I remark
Life is dark, that must be
When this dainty little maiden isn't there.
[Maidservants:]
Isn't there,
[All:]
When this dainty little maiden
isn't there, isn't there.
[Lionel:]
And whate'er may be the lot
That our future lives may know,
Joy or sorrow, weal or woe,
Yet to me it matters not,
Just because I love her so,
Just because I love her so.
[Maidservants:]
Just because he loves her so.
[Lionel:]
Just because
[All:]
I/her love/loves her so.
