Everything's Made for Love - Gene Austin

Though you’re past your baby days

Still you’ve got those baby ways

You’re as bashful every time

When I’m with you

Though you’re fond of me you say

Still you keep me far away

Oh why can’t we love

Just like other sweethearts do?

What have we got lips for

What have we got arms for

Why do we have stars above?

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!

What do we got eyes for

What we sigh sigh for

Why do we say «lovey dove?»

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!

What is the dark for?

What is the park for?

Why are shady lanes

Why is a cozy corner so rosey

Every time it rains?

What have I got you for?

What do you got me for?

What are we both thinking of?

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!

And why do we have preachers?

Why do we have teachers?

Why do we have weddings too?

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!

Now what is a gold band for?

And what is the best man for?

And why do we all say «I do?»

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!

What do men slave for?

What do they save for?

And when cupid calls

Why do we go and spend all of our dough?

To see Niagara Falls

Why we keep crying?

Why we keep sighing?

Why do we say «dovey dove?»

Oh you know, I know

Everything’s made for love!
