If Love Were All - Clare Teal

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
