1776 Original Cast Recording movie - Yours, Yours, Yours lyrics

rate me

<br>

Abigail:<br>

I live like a nun in a cloister<br>

Solitary, celibate, I hate it <br>

Adams:<br>

I live like a monk in an abbey<br>

Ditto, ditto, I hate it <br>

Abigail:<br>

Write to me with sentimental effusion<br>

Let me revel in romantic illusion <br>

Adams:<br>

Do you still smell of vanilla and spring air?<br>

And is my favorite lover's pillar still firm and fair? <br>

Abigail:<br>

What was there, John, still is there, John<br>

Come soon as you can to my cloister<br>

I've forgotten the feel of your hand<br>

Adams:<br>

Madam we shall walk in Cupid's Grove together <br>

Both:<br>

And we'll fondly survey<br>

That promised land<br>

<br>

Till then, till then<br>

I am as I ever was and ever was<br>

And ever shall be<br>

Yours, yours, yours, yours, yours <br>

Abigail:<br>

Saltpeter, John<br>
