| This old world was just as sad a place
|
| For me as could be, I was lonely and you
|
| This old world then changed to paradise for me
|
| Suddenly, why? |
| Because I love you
|
| All the wealth and power I may never find
|
| Still as long as I have you dear, I won’t mind
|
| For I’ll get by as long as I have you
|
| Though there be rain and darkness too
|
| I’ll not complain, I’ll see it through
|
| Poverty, may come to me, that’s true
|
| But what care I, say I’ll get by
|
| As long as I have you
|
| I’ve neither wealth nor power
|
| But now that you’ve said you’re mine
|
| Wherever I go, whatever I do
|
| I’ll be doing fine
|
| Thought I may be far away, it’s true
|
| Say what care I, dear, I’ll get by
|
| As long as I have you |
