Story behind the song
This is a recap of some of the songs in the musical "TREES!"
Lyrics
Sharing a Paris sidewalk café
Just we two; the world stood at bay
The night was young.
Our minds spun around like a carousel.
Interlude
Love swirls about like a Viennese waltz.
Rhythm and music style without faults;
It bound our souls in special harmony,
Making our young lives a loving rhapsody.
The rest of the world was but company,
Merely looking on from a balcony.
Savor the love that burns so true,
While hope conspires to create life anew.
Love swirls about like a Viennese waltz.
Interlude
Jacques and Denise,
Happiness is loves reward,
When love is true and each works hard.
Give and share, and re-enforce;
Fix disagreements at the source.
I love you is more than a phrase;
It must be lived in all its ways.
Happiness is Loves reward.
