Julie Andrews — A Room in Bloomsbury lyrics

Lyrics

A life of wealth does not appeal to me at all
Do you agree at all?
I do
The mere idea of living in a palace is
So full of fallacies
That’s true
I’ve got a very different sort of scheme in mind
It’s just a dream designed
For two
Would you care to hear about it, dear?
Would I care to? Can you doubt it, dear?
All I want is a room
In Bloom-
Sbury
Just a room that will do
For you
And me
One room’s enough for us
Though it’s on the top floor
Life may be rough for us
But its troubles we’ll ignore
On a wintery night
I’ll light
A fire
Everything I shall do
As you
Desire
You’ll be sitting
And you’ll be knitting
And so contented we’ll be
In our dear little room in Bloomsbury
All we want is a room
In Bloom-
Sbury
Just a room that will do
For you
And me
I’ll sew the covers for
Two old cozy armchairs
Neighbors will love us, for
We shall laugh at all our cares
While I’m reading a book
I’ll cook
A stew
Then I’ll bake a plum duff
Enough
For two
In our attic
We’ll be ecstatic
As lovebirds up in a tree
All we want is a room in Bloomsbury
