If you would linger,
linger, linger, linger,
linger in my arms a little, little, little longer,
I would lovea, lovea, lovea, lovea,
love you all the time.
If you would clinga, clinga,
clinga, clinga, cling,
would buy a ring -a -ring -a

The bells will ting -a -ling

For a happiness, happiness, happiness
Only you and you alone can bring to me
So I'll keep lingerin',

While I'm hankerin',

For the day when you will
up and marry me
So darlin', lingerin', lingerin', lingerin'
In my arms a little, little, little longer
And I would love -a, love -a, love -a, love -a,
love you all the time
You got me hungerin',

for a happiness, happiness, happiness
only you and you alone can bring to me
so I'll keep lingering lingering lingering

Linger ing, wondering,
