Hi - the first song is also known as "Mademoiselle from Armentieres," I think. You'll find information about it and lots of verses here (click) and here (click).
Here's the other:
TIPTOE THROUGH THE TULIPS (words-Al Dubin; music-Joe Burke)
Charted in 1929 by Nick Lucas (#1); Jean Goldkette (#5); Johnny Marvin (#11); and Roy Foz (#18) Charted at # 17 in 1968 by Tiny Tim
Tiptoe to the window, by the window that is where I'll be Come tiptoe through the tulips with me! Tiptoe from your pillow, to the shadow of a willow tree And tiptoe through the tulips with me!
Knee deep in flowers will stray, we'll keep the showers away.
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight, will you pardon me? Come tiptoe through the tulips with me!
