| Fate may often treat me meanly
|
| But I keenly pursue
|
| A little mirage in the blue
|
| Determination helps me through
|
| Though I never really grumble
|
| Life’s a jumble indeed
|
| And in my efforts to succeed
|
| I’ve had to formulate a creed
|
| I believe in doing what I can
|
| In crying when I must
|
| In laughing when I choose
|
| Hey ho, if love were all
|
| I should be lonely
|
| I believe the more you love a man
|
| The more you give your trust
|
| The more you’re bound to lose
|
| Although when shadows fall
|
| I think if only
|
| Somebody splendid really needed me
|
| Someone affectionate and dear
|
| Cares would be ended if I knew that he
|
| Wanted to have me near
|
| But I believe that since my life began
|
| The most I’ve had is just a talent to amuse
|
| Hey ho, if love were all
|
| Hey ho, if love were all
|
| Although when shadows fall
|
| I think if only
|
| Somebody splendid really needed me
|
| Someone affectionate and dear
|
| Cares would be ended if I knew that he
|
| Wanted to have me near
|
| But I believe that since my life began
|
| The most I’ve had is just a talent to amuse
|
| Hey ho, if love were all
|
| Hey ho, if love were all
|
| Hey ho, if love were all |
