Mabel Mercer

If Love Were All
Please please play my music for me,I'm not sure of the words yet;Huh, I'm not sure of anything!Life is very rough and tumble for a humble siseuse;One can betray one's troubles never, whatever occurs!Night after night,Have to be bright,Whether you're well or ill;The people have to 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 succeedI've had to formulate a creed.I believe in doing what I can,In crying when I mustAnd 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;Letras de cancionesAlthough, when shadows fall I think if onlySomebody splendid really needed me,Somebody affectionate and dear,Cares would be endedIf 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 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, I think if onlySomebody splendid really needed me,Somebody affectionate and dear,Cares would be endedIf I knew that he wanted to have me near.But, ah-ha, I believe that, since my life began,The most I've had is just a talent to amuse,Heigh ho!If love were all!
