The more I read the papers, the less I compre - hend

The world with all its capers and how it all will end

Nothing seems to be lasting, but that isn't our af - fair

We've got something permanent, I mean in the way we care

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

Not for a year, but ever and a day

The radi - o 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, Gi - braltar may tumble

They're only made of clay, but... our love is here to stay
