The Glory of Love
I hold in my hand, dear, three lettersThree letters from the stage of your fine, fine, super-fine careerThe first began "Eddie, darling, sweetheart, my wonderful one,I will always be grateful for the things that you've done"The second letter came right after I gave you your startYes, it came from your pen, dear, but not from your heartThe third became the joker of the deckYou ended your letter enclosed "please sign my cheque"Why you fool! You poor, sad, worthless, foolish foolIf you think that money can pay meFor the hard years I've suffered till things broke your wayYes, I'm answering your last letter that says we must partI'm tearing it to pieces the way you tore up my heartI smile when you kiss me and I thrill at your touchMy only sin was, I love you much too muchYou've got to give a little, take a littleAnd let your poor heart break a littleThat's the story of, that's the glory of loveYou've got to laugh a little, cry a littleBefore the clouds roll by a littleThat's the story of, that's the glory of love.As long as there's the two of usWe've got the world and all its charmsSongtexteAnd when the world is through with usWe've got each other's arms.You've got to win a little, lose a littleAnd always have the blues a littleThat's the story of, that's the glory of love.(As long as there's the two of us)(We've got the world and all its charms)And when the world is through with usWe've got each other's arms.You've got to win a little, lose a littleAnd always have the blues a littleThat's the story of, that's the glory of love.That's the story of, that's the glory of love Aus Songtexte Mania
