Lyrics
Refrain:
The road that leads to fortune and fame
Is paved with gold in your dreams
But after you’ve journeyed and reached your aim
It seldom is all that it seems
To have, to hold, to love and caress
Is all we can ask from above
For the road that leads to happiness
Is the road that leads to love
Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
