How Can Love Survive |
| In all the famous love affairs |
| The lovers have to struggle |
| In garret rooms away upstairs |
| The lovers starve and snugggle |
| They’re famous for misfortune which |
| They seem tohave no fear of |
| While lovers who are very rich |
| You very seldom hear of |
| No little shack does he share with me |
| We do not flee from a mortgagee |
| Nary a care in the world have we |
| How can love survive? |
| He’s fond of bonds and he ows a lot |
| I have a plane and a diesel yacht |
| Plenty of nothing you haven’t got! |
| How can love survive? |
| No rides for us on the top of a bus |
| In the face of the freezing breezes |
| You reach your goals in your comfy old Rolls |
| Or in one of your Mercedes-es! |
| Far, very far off the beam are we |
| Quaint and bizarre as a team are we |
| Two millionaires with a dream are we |
| We’re keeping romance alive |
| Two millionaries with a dream are we |
| We’ll make our love survive… |
| How can I shw what I feel for him |
| I cannot go out and steal for him |
| I cannot die like Camile for him |
| How can love survive? |
| You millionaires with financial affairs |
| Are too busy for simple pleasure |
| When you are poor it is toujours l’amour |
| For l’amour all the poor have leisure! |
| Caught in our gold platted chains are we |
| Lost in our wealthy domains are we |
| Trapped by our capital gains are we |
| But we’ll keep romance alive |
| Trapped by your capital goals are you |
| We’ll make our love |
| Survive! |
