Rodgers And Hammerstein - How Can Love Survive From The Show lyrics
rate meNo little shack do you share with me,<br />
We do not flee from the mortgagee,<br />
Nary a care in the world have we;<br />
How Can Love Survive?<br />
You're fond of bonds and you own a lot.<br />
I have a plane and a diesel yacht,<br />
Plenty of nothing you haven't got<br />
How Can Love Survive?<br />
No rides for us on the top of a bus<br />
In the face of the freezing breezes.<br />
You reach your goals in your comfy old Rolls<br />
Or in one of your Mercedes!<br />
Far, very far off the beam are we,<br />
Quaint and bizarre as a team are we,<br />
Two millionaires with a dream are we,<br />
We're keeping romance alive.<br />
Two millionaires with a dream are we,<br />
We'll make our love survive<br />
<br />
No little cold water flat have we,<br />
Warmed by a glow of insolvency,<br />
Up to your necks in security.<br />
How Can Love Survive?<br />
How can I show what I feel for you?<br />
I cannot go out and steal for you,<br />
I cannot die like Camille for you.<br />
How Can Love Survive?<br />
You millionaires with financial affairs<br />
Are too busy for simple pleasure.<br />
When you are poor it is toujours l'amour,<br />
For l'amour all the poor have leisure!<br />
Caught in our gold plated chains are we,<br />
Lost in our wealthy domains are we,<br />
Trapped by our capital gains are we,<br />
But we'll keep romance alive.<br />
Trapped by your capital gains are we,<br />
We'll (You'll) make our (your) love survive
