I Owe You - Helen Kane

Although I’ve never said it

I know that I’m indebted

But giving all my love at once would bust me;

And though it’s quite a task to

It’s only right to ask you

To take my I O U

To show you trust me

I owe you all my affection

I owe you all my protection

And it’s true, so I owe you!

Let me pay with some love and praises

Let me say lots of pretty phrases

Say, I may say, «I love you!»

Keep me under obligation

You won’t have to sue!

It’s my fatal fascination

Knowing I owe you!

Many firms

They wanna give me credit;

Make your terms

And we’ll soon be wedded

If you’ll take my I O U

Keep me under obligation

You won’t have to sue!

It’s my fatal fascination

Knowing I owe you!

There’s many firms

They wanna give me credit;

Make your terms

And we’ll soon be wedded

If you’ll take my I O U
