Cover A Clover With Kisses

Lyric: Mort Dixon
Music: Harry Warren
Year: 1931
Original publisher: Remick Music Corp.

Verse 1:

Sweetheart, I am writing
While a little tear
Slowly trickles down.
Not a thing exciting
Ever happens here,
What a lonesome town.
While I dream of quiet lanes I roamed with you,
Just to make me happy, here's what you can do.

Chorus:

Cover a clover with kisses
And send it to me;
Until we meet again
And life is sweet again,
How dear that souvenir will be.
Maybe a breath of the green fields
Will scatter the clouds I see;
So, cover a four-leaf clover with kisses
And send it to me.

Verse 2:

When the skies are darkest
And the night is long,
I am hoping then:
That my little bluebird
Soon will sing a song
For us two again.
But until the golden specks of dawn appear,
Don't forget the favor that I asked you, dear;

[Chorus]
