Chorus:

Love marches on!
There's an end to a June night,
Hurry up while it's moonlight,
Love marches on!
Before the dawn,
Maybe I can persuade you,
But I might be afraid to
When night is gone.
I've got you where I want you
And I want you to say you want me, too.
So, hurry up and say
That you won't delay
The day we say, "I do."
Love marches on!
There's an end to a June night,
Hurry up while it's moonlight,
Love marches on!
When you're in love, this waiting
And hesitating is simply a crime.
And procrastination is the thief of time;

Patter:

You need some kisses,
Oh, yes, indeed!
I need a Missus
And you're the kind of Missus that I need;
You know that this is the day of speed!

Chorus continuation:

Make up your mind,
Those who wait till tomorrow
Only find, to their sorrow,
They're left behind.
When love comes knockin' upon your door,
Invite him in before he's gone!
Father Time won't wait for anyone,
Love marches on!
