Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say

Please share my umbrella

Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows

Under my umbrella

All that summer we enjoyed it

Wind and rain and- shine

That umbrella, we employed it

Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop

Sometimes she'd shop and she would show me what she bought

Someday my name and hers are  going to be the same

Led  me to a vow
