LYRICS

We lived alone, my house and I.
We had the earth, we had the sky.
I had a lamp against the dark,
and I was happy as a lark.
We lived alone, my house and I.
We had the earth, we had the sky.
I had a lamp against the dark,
and I was happy as a lark.

I had a stove and a window-screen,
I had a table painted green.
Sat on a chair with a broken back,
wearing a pretty potato sack.

I had a rug upon the floor,
and roses grew around my door.
I had a job; my wants were few.
They were until I wanted you.

And when I set my eyes on you,
nothing else would do, nothing else would do.
