If Love Were All (from "Bitter Sweet")

If Love Were All (如果爱是全部) - James Pease/Susan Hampshire/Adele Leigh

Life is very rough and tumble

For a humble deserves

One can betray ones troubles never

Whatever occurs

Night after night have to look bright

Whether you're well or ill

People must love their fill

You mustn't sleep 'til 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

Hey 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 could be ended if I knew

That he wanted to have me near

I believe that since my life began

The most I've had is just a talent to amuse

Hey ho if love were all

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

Hey ho if love were all
