By Jeeves movie - When Love Arrives lyrics

<br>

BERTIE<br>

But the point of all this, let's face it, is that it's not what Gussie says, surely.<br>

It's what he feels. I mean, love's a funny thing. It doesn't always look quite the same. <br>

It varies from person to person, if you follow. I mean, with Budge it's a brisk covering in jam,<br>

but with Gussie, it's more subtle - more oblique - like - steamed fish - it creeps up on you... <br>

When love arrives, it's hard to tell<br>

He doesn't ring the front door bell<br>

He doesn't wait politely in the hall<br>

Or leave his card<br>

He doesn't wait to wipe his feet<br>

In fact he's not at all discreet<br>

He doesn't phone to warn you he will call and means to stay<br>

He may not come when you're expecting him to visit -<br>

But if he does, make sure he finds you home <br>

Surrender now, for what's the use?<br>

And wave that friendly flag of truce<br>

Just rush right out to greet him<br>

Don't hesitate at all, dear<br>

You'll bless the day that love rings your bell <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Ding! Ding! <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Hallo? <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Who's there? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

It's love <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Come in <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Kiss, kiss <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Hee-hee! <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

So close your eyes and lend an ear<br>

For I suspect he's somewhere near<br>

And that it's you that he has come to find <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Oh Bertie, dear... <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

So let him hold you tight and snug - <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Like kittens cuddled in a rug? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Well, that's the sort of thing I had in mind... <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

Oh look, my dear!<br>

Each dandelion clock is very softly chiming<br>

To tell the flowers it's time to go to bed <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

What's that she said? <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

I know this night can't be in vain<br>

The stars shine in God's daisy chain<br>

And even Mr. Moon's begun to snore... <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Good grief, no more...<br>

Look, softly now, just close your eyes - <br>

<br>

MADELINE<br>

And will I get a big surprise? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

What else d'you think I'm doing all this for<br>

You lovely thing, you?<br>

Just wait right there till love himself arrives<br>

Wait there...stay there...right there...don't move...stay put... <br>
