If Love Were All

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

And laughing when I choose

Heigh-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

Heigh-ho

If love were all
