This is no laughing matter 
Somehow I want to cry 
I know your sweet and idle chatter 
Really means goodbye 

This is no laughing matter 
I thought we?d never part 
This is no time for pretty patter 
While you break my heart 

What of all the moon dreams 
Shared together beside a garden wall 
Love can't always have that perfect weather 
A little rain must fall 

Think of the dreams you'll shatter 
If you should say we?re through 
This is no laughing matter 
Darling, I'm in love with you...!
