Subject: Lyr Add: LOVE LOVE LOVE (Gerard Carbonara, 1919)
From the sheet music at Indiana University:


LOVE LOVE LOVE
Words and music by Gerard Carbonara
New York: G. Carbonara, 1919.
"As sung in D. W. Griffith's spectacular romance, 'The Fall of Babylon'"

1. You're fair to me and enchanting.
Red lipped soft skinned are you.
Visions of sun-kissed mornings
To live and laugh with you.
Limpid pools are your eyes,
Rivaling blue of the skies.
Fair maid oh! what a prize
For all life through.

CHORUS 1. Love, love, love,
'Tis mightier than kings.
Yet love grief sadness sometimes brings
Like summer rain
Refreshes all again
The only thing in life
Is love, love, love.

2. From out of my mountain fastness,
Where sheep and goats abound.
Longing I've gazed o'er the city
For there my love I found.
His is a kingly state.
Mighty magnificent great.
Alas unhappy fate
I love alone.

CHORUS 2. Love, love, love,
The only thing in life.
Heart throbs caresses kisses and smiles
Lotion divine
That heals this breast of mine
Oh! what an endless joy
Is love, love, love.
