We Lived Alone

We lived alone, my house and I
 We had the earth, we had the sky
 I had a lamp against the dark
 And I was happy as a lark
 We lived alone, my house and I
 We had the earth, we had the sky
 I had a lamp against the dark
 And I was happy as a lark
 I had a stow and a window screen
 I had a table painted green
 Sat on a chair with a broken back
 Wearing a pretty potato sack
 I had a rug upon the floor
 And roses grew around my door
 I had a job, my wants were few
 They were until I wanted you
 And when I set my eyes on you
 Nothing else would do, nothing else would do
