WEB OF LOVE
From the film "The Great Gabbo" (1929)
(Paul Titsworth / Lynn Cowan)
Betty Compson & Donald Douglas (Film Soundtrack) - 1929
The High Hatters - 1929
DOUGLAS:
There's a story that you'll know
Of a spider in his home
And the timid little, creeping little fly
COMPSON:
I don't believe in love devine
I've had them one too many times
But anything with you can be divine
DOUGLAS:
It's just another version of a fairy tale, that's true
Let me be the spider and the fly a girl like you....
DOUGLAS:
When you're caught in the web of love
There is nothing that you can do
COMPSON:
Somebody's arms so tightly wrapped around you
Somebody's lips to say "I'm glad I found you"
DOUGLAS:
There is joy in each fond caress
COMPSON:
Girl and boy find their happiness
Blue skies above you
DOUGLAS:
They know I love you
BOTH:
When you're caught in the web of love
