How Can Love Survive?

[MAX]
In all the famous love affairs the lovers
Have to struggle
In garret rooms away upstairs the lovers
Starve and snuggle
They're famous for misfortune which they seem to
Have no fear of
While lovers who are very rich you very
Seldom hear of

[ELSA]
No little shack do you share with me
We do not flee from a mortgagee
Nary a care in the world have we

[MAX]
How can love survive?

[ELSA]
You're fond of bonds and you own a lot
I have a plane and a diesel yacht

[MAX]
Plenty of nothing you haven't got

[ELSA & MAX]
How can love survivе?

[ELSA]
No rides for us on the top of a bus
In the facе of the freezing breezes

[MAX]
You reach your goals in your comfy old Rolls
Or in one of your Mercedeses

[ELSA]
Far, very far off the beam are we
Quaint and bizarre as a team are we
Two millionaires with a dream are we
We're keeping romance alive
Two millionaires with a dream are we
We're keeping romance alive
Two millionaires with a dream are we
We'll make our love survive

No little cold water flat have we
Warmed by the glow of insolvency

[MAX]
Up to your necks in security
How can love survive?

[ELSA]
How can I show what I feel for you?
I cannot go out and steal for you
I cannot die like Camille for you
How can love survive?

[MAX]
You millionaires with financial affairs
Are too busy for simple pleasure
When you are poor it is toujours l'amour
For l'amour all the poor have leisure

[ELSA]
Caught in our gold-plated chains are we
Lost in our wealthy domains are we
Trapped by our capital gains are we
But we'll keep romance alive

[MAX]
Trapped by your capital gains are you

[ELSA, MAX]
We'll make our love survive (You'll make your love survive)
