No. 3 - Duet - Arabella and Polly - "Love."
| Arabella: | When a maiden's all a-flutter, Come and go the frequent blushes, Half-formed words her soft lips utter; All in vain her heart she hushes, Is it Love? she hardly dares ask herself the old, old question. |
|
| Polly: | Half the time it isn't Love but it's only indigestion. | |
| Arabella: | Love has come it must be so, For Love will come. |
|
| Polly: | And Love will go. | |
| Arabella: | What is it causes the soul to mount? Why, it's Love! Love! Love! |
|
| Polly: | What is it eats up your bank account? Why, it's Love! Love! Love! |
|
| Arabella: | What is it fills your heart with thrills? | |
| Polly: | What is it runs up your weekly bills? | |
| Arabella: | All comprehensive | |
| Polly: | But very expensive | |
| Both: | Is Love! Love! Love! | |
| Arabella: | What is it causes the soul to mount? Why, it's Love, yes, 'tis Love, 'tis Love! |
|
| Polly: | What is it eats up your bank account? | |
| Arabella: | 'Tis not Love, no 'tis never Love, | |
| Polly: | What is it runs up your weekly bills? | |
| Arabella: | What is it fills your heart with thrills? All comprehensive and never |
|
| Both: | Expensive is Love! Love! Love! | |
| Arabella: | When with Love the soul is aching, | |
| Polly: | That's the time to look for trouble. | |
| Arabella: | When a maiden's heart is breaking | |
| Polly: | Love has come and bent it double. | |
| Arabella: | What is Love? Ah! who shall say? Though the heart against it labors, Why love holds us in its sway? |
|
| Polly: | Only to amuse the neighbors. | |
| Arabella: | Love is king! full well we know That Love will come. |
|
| Polly: | And Love will go! | |
| Arabella: | What is it makes all the
world seem bright? Why, it's Love! Love! Love! |
|
| Polly: | What is it keeps us awake at night? Why, it's Love! Love! Love! |
|
| Arabella: | Coming to us with resistless might, | |
| Polly: | Utterly spoiling our appetite! | |
| Arabella: | Pow'r all possessing | |
| Polly: | But very depressing | |
| Both: | Is Love! Love! Love! | |
| Arabella: | What is it makes all the
world seem bright? Why, it's Love, yes, 'tis Love, 'tis Love! |
|
| Polly: | What is it keeps us awake at night? Why, it's Love! Love! Love! |
|
| Arabella: | Coming to us with resistless might, | |
| Polly: | Always spoiling your appetite! Power all possessing but very depressing |
|
| Both: | Is Love! Love! Love! | |
