In all the famous
Love affairs the
Lovers have to
Struggle
In garret rooms
Away upstairs
The lover 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 Camille
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 I'amour
All the poor
Have leisure
Caught in our
Gold plated
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 your
Capital gains
Are you
We'll make your
Love survive
