If Love Were All lyrics

Life is very rough and tumble

For a humble diseuse;

One can betray one's troubles

Never, whatever occurs!

Night after night,

Have to look bright,

Whether you're well or ill;

People must laugh their fill,

You mustn't sleep

Till dawn comes creeping.

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.

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!

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!
