Do I Love You? 1934 'Thank Your Stars'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 11 Sep 2002

You can have my heart on a silver platter,
if you gave me yours
nothing else would matter.
I believe in you completely,
why don't you trust me, too?
We're together now
still you're at a distance,
tho' our lips should meet,
still I meet resistance,
you just look at me so sweetly
and ask if I love you.

Do I love you?
Does the grass grow?
Does the wind blow?
Does a stream flow?
Well, if they do and you know they do,
then I love you.
Is my love true?
Is a star bright?
Is a day light?
Is the snow white?
Well, if they are
and you know they are,
my love is true.
But even if the grass didn't grow,
and even if a star didn't shine,
I wouldn't mind the rain or the snow
if you were mine,
Do I need you?
Does a flame burn?
Does the world turn?
Does my heart yearn?
Well, if they do and you know they do,
then I need you.

Do I love you?
Does a duck swim?
Does a bird sing?
Does a bee sting?
Well, if they do and you know they do,
then I love you.
Would I be true?
Does a horn toot?
Does a gun shoot?
Does an owl hoot?
Well, if they do and you know they do,
then I'd be true.
But even if a bird didn't sing,
and even if an owl didn't hoot,
I wouldn't give a hoot if I knew
you loved me, too.
Do I need you?
Does a clock tick?
Does a cow moo?
Does a mule kick?
Well, if they do
and you know they do,
then I need you.
