13—LET THE GREAT BIG WORLD KEEP TURNING

Let the great big world keep turning,
Never mind if I've got you,
For I only know that I want you so
And there's no one else will do.
You have simply set me yearning
And for ever I'll be true.
Let the great big world keep on turning round
Now I've found some-one like you.

14—A BACHELOR GAY (The Maid of the Mountains)

At seventeen he falls in love quite madly
With eyes of tender blue,
At twenty-four he gets it rather badly
With eyes of a diff'rent hue,
At thirty-five you'll see him flirting sadly
With two or three, or more,
When he fancies he is past love,
It is then he meets his last love,
And he loves her as he's never lov'd before.

15—HAVE A HEART (The Boy)

Have a heart
You have me on a string because you know I love you.
Have a heart
I'd do most anything that you would ask me to do.
All day I'm scheming,
All night I'm dreaming,
All for you my love is beaming,
Have a heart, and love me just a bit because I can't stop loving you.

16—CAN'T YOU SEE I MEAN YOU (Theodore & Co.)

All that I want is somebody to love me
And to love me well
Very well
Morning and night to be ready and willing
Of that love to tell
Very well
Holding my hand as in fancy we wander
Through this great big world for two.
All that I want is somebody to love me,
Can't you see I mean you.
