Lyrics

1. I want to tell you a story,
   A story of love’s sweet refrain
   Fill’d with adventure and glory,
   All over and over again
   Strange are the capers of Cupid,
   Strolling ‘long love’s broadway;
   Though the story is old,
   ‘Tis the sweetest that’s told,
   So dearie, I just want to say.

Chorus
I’d love to live in loveland with a girl like you.
And ev’ry day a holiday with skies of baby blue.
Where roses bloom forever
And sweethearts are always true,
I’d love to live in loveland with a girl like you.

2. Ev’rything’s lovely in loveland,
   Where ev’ry heart’s beating in tune;
   Like turtle doves are in Doveland,
   And life seems a grand honeymoon.
   There we can stroll in the moonlight,
   By babbling brooks we’ll stray;
   Won’t you come, girl of mine,
   To that wonderful clime,
   And lovelight will show us the way.
