Honeysuckle Rose Songtext
von Lena Horne

Every honeybee
Sighs with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I won′t blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

When we're passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You′re much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

I don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It′s sweet when you stir it up

When I′m taking sips
From your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose


Every honeybee
Sighs with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I can′t blame them, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

When we′re passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're sweeter, goodness knows
You′re my honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It′s sweet when you stir it up

When I′m taking sips
From your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows

You′re my
Honeysuckle rose
