Why Does It Get So Late So Early?

Why does it get so late so early?

When I'm so in love with you?

We never dance enough

Don't get the chance enough

Why honey, we just don't have time to romance enough

Just think of all those hugs and kisses

That we never will get to

Why does it get so late so early, honey?

When I'm so in love with you?

Why does it get so late so early?

When I'm walkin' home with you?

It may be two or three

But honey, gosh oh gee

Tonight's the night

Tonights the right

Opportunity!

How can I leave you, now of all times

When my heart's nowhere near through?

Why does it get so late so early, honey?

When I'm so in love with you?

Why does your pa come out a-runnin'?

Sayin', "Come now son, skiddoo!"

Why does it get so late so early, honey?

When I'm so in love with you?

When I'm so in love with you
