My love and I ask little of the world The right to sigh together in the rain And walk with heads up in the sun And share our joy and our pain And yet they said that we were wrong We hadn't the right to our love That this love was shameful to see And yet we treasured our love And so we go our solitary way Indifferent To the cold unfriendly stares Indifferent To the whispered talk We don't care at all We have all we need As long as we can be together We find our consolation In each other's eyes That sweet look of wonder We know we have earned The right to love We know that we have earned That precious right to love
