Life is a very rough and tumble
For a humble
Chanteuse
One can betray one's troubles never
Whatever
Occurs
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 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
Where has the time all gone to?
Haven't done half the things we want to
Oh, well, we'll catch up some other time
​
This day was just a token
Too many words are still unspoken
Oh, well, we'll catch up some other time
​
Just when the fun is starting
Comes the time for parting
But let's be glad for what we had and what's to come
​
There's so much more embracing
Still to be done, the time is racing
Oh, well, we'll catch up some other time
