[Written by Cahn and van Heusen]
You see a pair of laughing eyes
And suddenly your sighing sighs
You're thinking nothing's wrong
You string along, boy, then snap
Those eyes, those sighs
They're part of the tender trap
You're hand in hand beneath the trees
And soon there's music in the breeze
You're acting kind of smart
Until your heart just goes wap
Those trees, that breeze
They're part of the tender trap
Some starry night
When her kisses make you tingle
She'll hold you tight
And you'll hate yourself for
For being single
And all at once it seems so nice
The folks are throwing shoes and rice
You hurry to a spot
That's just a dot on the map
You wonder how, but it's too late now
You fell in love, and love is a tender trap
And I'm trapped with you

Well, buzz, buzz, buzz goes the bumble bee
Tweele, deedle, dee goes the bird
But the sound of your little voice, darling
Is the sweetest sound I've ever heard
I've seen the beauty of the red, red rose
Seen the beauty when the sky is blue
Seen the beauty of the evening sunset
But the beauty of you
Sweet as the honey from the honeycomb
Sweet are the grapes from the vine
But there's nothing as sweet as you, darling
And I hope someday you'll be mine
