It Will Have To Do

It Will Have To Do
music & lyric by Mann Holiner (second from left), Alberta Nichols,
Saul Chaplin (upper right), Sammy Cahn (top center) & L.E. Freeman

I'd work for you, I'd slave for you, I'd be a beggar or a knave for you;
And if that isn't love it will have to do until the real thing comes along.
I'd gladly move the earth for you, to prove my love, dear, and it's worth to you.
If that isn't love, it will have to do until the real thing comes along.

With all the words, dear, at my command I just can't make you understand,
I'll always love you, darling, come what may,
My heart is yours, what more can I say?

I'd lie for you, I'd cry for you;
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you.
If tht isn't love, it will have to do until the real thing comes along.
