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! |
