Ever since my heart took such a tumble
|
I've wondered if your love for me would last
|
When landmarks fall and institutions crumble
|
Will it be just a memory of the past?
|
|
When lovers make no rendezvous
|
And stroll along Fifth Avenue
|
When this familiar world is through
|
Will you still be mine?
|
|
When cabs don't drive around the park
|
No windows light the summer dark
|
When love has lost its secret spark
|
Will you still be mine?
|
|
When moonlight on the Hudson's not romancy
|
And spring no longer turns a young man's fancy
|
|
When glamour girls have lost their charms
|
And sirens just mean false alarms
|
When lovers heed no call to arms
|
Will you still be mine?
|
|
When Elsa's parties are no fun
|
When FDR declines to run
|
When Eleanor of "My Day" is done
|
Will you still be mine?
|
|
When Garbo gives out interviews
|
And Harlem folk forget the blues
|
When G-Man Hoover's out of clues
|
Will you still be mine?
|
|
A song of love will just remain a gay note
|
When we have finally paid our FHA note
|
|
When Barrymore first hides his face
|
And when Yehudi leaves a trace
|
When Crosby's horses win a race
|
Will you still be mine?
|
