In all the famous love affairs The lovers have to struggle
In garret rooms away upstairs The lovers starve and snuggle
They're famous for misfortune which They seem to have no fear of While lovers who are very rich You very seldom hear of
No little shack do you share with me
We do not flee from a mortgagee
Nary a care in the world have we
How can love survive?
You're fond of bonds and you own a lot
I have a plane and a diesel yacht
Plenty of nothing you haven't got How can love survive?
No rides for us on the top of a bus In the face of the freezing breezes
You reach your goals in your comfy old rolls Or in one of your Mercedeses
Far, very far off the beam are we
Quaint and bizarre as a team are we
Two millionaires with a dream are we We're keeping romance alive
Two millionaires with a dream are we We'll make our love survive
No little cold water flat have we Warmed by the glow of insolvency
Up to your necks in security
How can love survive?
How can I show what I feel for you?
I cannot go out and steal for you I cannot die like Camile for you How can love survive?
You millionaires with financial affairs
Are too busy for simple pleasure
When you are poor it is toujours l'amour For l'amour all the poor have leisure
Caught in our gold platted chains are we
Lost in our wealthy domains are we
Trapped by our capital gains are we But we'll keep romance alive
Trapped by our capital gains are we We'll make our love survive
