Hal Tureed

An invitation song. The speaker asks if she wants to come with him to the south, to a place where one might find a small piece of paradise in this world. They can begin life again, it does not matter that they are not perfect, and there is no doubt it will be beautiful, because love adds beauty to everything. In the verses he sits in the sun thinking of her eyes, remembers when things were good and easy, and wishes it had lasted. He sees other girls but none pull him the way she does. He knows it is hard, but he will try to make it last, and he needs her to say yes. The question is repeated as a pet-name chorus.
