Until the Real Thing Comes Along Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald with Ellis Larkins

Mmmhmmhmm
Mmmhmmhmmhmmmmm

I′d work for you
I'd slave for you
I′d be a beggar or a knave for you

If that isn't love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along

I'd gladly move the earth for you
To prove my love, dear,
And its worth for you

If that isn′t love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along


With all the words, dear, at my command
I just can′t make you
Understand
I'll always love you, darlin′,
Come what may
My heart is yours
What more can I say?

I'd sigh for you
I′d cry for you
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you

If that isn′t love
Well, if that isn't love
It will have to do
Until the real thing comes along
Until the real thing comes along
