It's very clear, our love is here to stay

Not for a year but ever and a day

The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know

May just be passing fancies and in time may go



But oh, my dear, our love is here to stay

Together we're going a long, long way

In time the rockies may crumble, gibraltar may tumble

They're only made of clay

But our love is here to stay



<instrumental interlude>



In time the rockies may crumble, gibraltar may tumble

They're only made of clay

But our love is here to stay
