A Lady Loves (from "I Love Melvin") Songtext

von Debbie Reynolds

A lady loves expensive clothes and pretty jewels and furs and french chapeaus
She loves her lingerie in black it suits her zodiac
Loves a penthouse where she'll be content to stay
Finds little gifts on her breakfast tray
But now and then pack and sail away
For a simple Riveria holiday
A lady loves beaucoup l'amour, but first of all she loves to be secure
And she adores the subtle phrase that it's the man who pays
Yet there is one vital thought she will place above, all the things I mention of
That most of all a lady loves to love.
Male chorus: A lady loves her phobias she has complexities she will insist
Lady: It gives her things to talk about with her psychiatrist
Male Chorus: Incidentally when she drops her glove
Gentlemen know what she's thinking of
Lady: That most of all a lady loves to love
Male Chorus: And what is more a lady loves to live
Lady: And what is more lady lives to love.
