Love Song versuri

Love Song lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner

HOBO
New York, Tennessee, Oregon, Maine
Wichita, Little Rock, Butte and Spokane
I’ve seen ‘em all, mister, I’ve heard their noisy hum
You know ‘em all, mister, when you’re a bum

Wherever I go I listen
And I hear the lonely tune
Of the frantic, lonely millions
Trying hard to buy the moon
And I heard a song of harvest
In the green and copper hills
As the copper turns to pennies
And the green to dollar bills

Yes, I heard ‘em all, mister
But can’t go sing ‘em back
I sing another song along the track

I sing a song about the ocean
Sing of how endless is the ocean
Sing of however near the shore and sea
And that’s how true love should ever be

I sing a song about the snowfall
Sing of how gentle is the snowfall
Sing of how pure the snow on every tree
And that’s how true love should ever be

I’ve sung my song on a plain
With the wind and the rain about me
I’ve sung it high to a cloud
And to people who crowd along

Oh, I sing a song about forever
Only a song about forever
Sing of how empty hearts forever long
But nobody listens to my song
