Lover Come Back to Me
OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN, II, OSCAR II HAMMERSTEIN, SIGMUND ROMBERG
Love is like a hydrant, it turns off and on
Like some friendships when your money's gone
Love stands in with the loan sharks when your heart's in pawn
If I had some strong wings like an aeroplane
Had some broad wings like some aeroplane
I would fly away forever
never to come again
For love oh love oh loveless love
Has set our hearts are gold-less gold
From milk-less milk and silk-less silk
We are growing used to soul-less souls
Such grafting times we never saw
That's why we have a pure full law
In everything we find a flaw
Even love oh love oh loveless love
Just to fly away from loveless love
