Ivy Rose, Ivy Rose, I'm in love with you

Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!

I'll be yours when tonight is a memory

I'll be yours and you'll always be mine!



As the years disappear in the twilight of time

With a sigh we will fondly recall ( fondly recall! )

All the plans that we made, how we kissed unafraid

In the shade of the old Ivy Rose!



Ivy Rose, Ivy Rose, I'm in love with you

Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!

I'll be yours when tonight is a memory

I'll be yours and you'll always be mine!



Hand in hand as we stand 'neath the old campus moon

Make believe that tomorrow is here ( Here My Love! )

Picture me close to you, in a dream house for two

Where the ivy grows greener each year!



Ivy Rose, Ivy Rose, I'm in love with you

Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!

I'll be yours when tonight is a memory

I'll be yours and you'll always . . .

Be mine! ( You'll be mine! )
