[MALE ENSEMBLE]
Time stops, hearts are young
Only serenades are sung
In Loveland
Where everybody lives to love
[FEMALE ENSEMBLE]
Raindrops never rain
Every road is Lovers' Lane
In Loveland
Where everybody loves to live
[ENSEMBLE]

[FIRST CAVALIER]
The lover is transported by his rapture
As ever heavenwards his heart ascends
[ENSEMBLE]
Loveland, where everybody lives to love
[SECOND CAVALIER]
The lover's heart contains a lover's secret

[ENSEMBLE]
Loveland, Loveland

Love, Love, Loveland
Love, Love, Loveland
Love!
