Angeline
Whispers of Love: Angeline's Melody Revealed
Lyrics
Robin's in the tree top high
Refers to the presence of a robin bird in a high tree
Soon will sing a lullaby
Implying the imminent singing of a soothing song
Angeline, Angeline
Repeatedly calling out to Angeline, likely as a form of longing or affection
Bashful little whippoorwills
Describing shy whippoorwills, expressing their commitment to something
Can't you hear them say, "I will"
Asking if one can perceive the whippoorwills’ commitment
Angeline, Angeline
Reiterating the call to Angeline, possibly seeking attention or response
The crickets in the meadows
Pointing out the presence of crickets in the meadows
The deer in the woods
Noting the deer in the woods, possibly setting a natural scene
I know it's time for singin' in the rain
Suggesting a time for joyful activity like singing in the rain
Until you make up your mind
Expressing a commitment to waiting until a decision is made
I'll try to be good, babe
Promising to behave well during the waiting period
How long must I have to wait?
Expressing impatience and questioning the duration of the wait
Can't you see my heart's a flame?
Describing intense emotions of love or desire
Don't you know that you're to blame?
Attributing responsibility or fault to Angeline for the intense feelings
Say you're mine, Angeline
Explicitly asking for acknowledgment of a romantic relationship
Oh, Angeline, sweet Angeline
Reiterating love and affection towards Angeline
Oh baby, I love you, Angeline
Declaring love for Angeline in an endearing manner
