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
