A house with love in it is rich indeed
Although there are a thousand things that house may need
The carpet may be old, the room so plain and bare
And yet it's beautiful somehow, when love is living there
A house with love in it just seems to bloom
As though the month of May were filling every room
So, darling, through the years with all my heart I'll pray
A house with love in it is where we'll stay

A house with love in it just seems to bloom 
As though the month of May were filling every room
So darling, through the years with all my heart I'll pray
A house with love in it is where we'll stay
