No. 11 - Soli and Duo - Violet and Alvin, with Chorus

Lyrics by Willard Spenser

[Alvin:] Love reigns! Love, ah, yes, love reigns.
[Violet:] Fate, 'tis, 'tis fate so ordains.
[Alvin:] Love wins; Ah! yes, 'tis no dream.
[Violet:] For love reigns ever supreme.
[Alvin:] Sweet moments with joy entranced,
[Violet:] Fly fast by rapture enhanced.
[Alvin:] Passed thus with thee 'tis no dream,
[Violet:] For love reigns ever supreme.
[Alvin:] Hours more fleet, flowers are brighter,
[Violet:] Woods more sweet, hearts are lighter.
[Alvin:] Skies so blue, more radiantly gleam,
[Violet:] Eyes so true, more tenderly beam,
[Alvin:] For love reigns ever, ah! yes, ah!
[Violet:] True love yields never. Ah! no, ah!
[Both:] For love reigns ever supreme.
Fate, 'tis, 'tis fate so ordains.
Love wins; Ah! yes, 'tis no dream.
For love reigns ever supreme.
[Chorus:] Yes, we're immensely high-toned,
High-toned, high-toned,
Kalamazoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo,
Kalamazoo, zoo.
[Violet:] Oh, kind goblins of the hold,
Again my thanks for your most welcome interference.
[Alvin:] Yes, Hobgobs, we thank you for
Putting in so timely an appearance;
Yes, yes, Hobgobs we thank you all.
