A casual look, a little wink
Can reveal just what you think
Don't be shy, don't even sigh
For you're my guy, you are my guy

Oh soldier boy, when you proposed
I said no, your face just froze
You know I love you, but I'm so young
Can't marry no one, can't marry no one

Darling, can't you see that I'm going overseas
For two, three, four years, don't know how long it will be
So hear, hear my plea, and come marry, marry me
Before it's too late

And with a smile
We walked down the aisle
Me in my wedding dress
A vision of happiness
And just to think all it took
Was a casual look
