From the episode, “Lucy Meets the Moustache” of the Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour. The song meant so much more because it was the last episode of the well-liked I Really like Lucy series. Lucy and Desi were also divorcing right after a long tumultuous marriage. They nonetheless loved every other quite considerably, but the issues that plagued the marriage couldn’t preserve them together. However, they remained buddies even after they married other people, and when Desi died, Lucy was devastated. So in a sense, this song was meaningful for them both. All that they could give every single other was really like….that’s all. The last lines of the show…. Lucy: “Honey, honey, I just wanted to support.” Ricky: “From now on, you can help me by not trying to help me. But thanks, anyway.” — That is All Lyrics & Music by Alan Brandt and Bob Haymes, 1952 [brackets indicate Edie Adams' variation on the song] I can only give you adore that lasts forever And a [the] promise to be near every time you call And the only heart I own for you and you alone That is all, that’s all I can only give you country walks in springtime And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall And a love whose burning light will warm the winter night That is all, that’s all There are those I am certain [who] have told you They would give you the world for a toy All I have are these arms to enfold you And a enjoy even time can’t destroy [And a really like time can by no means destroy] If you’re questioning what I’m asking in return, dear You will be glad to know that my demands are little Say it’s …

@MelodyOfVision
It brings tears to my eyes every time I watch this. thank you for posting <3
@countrylalaland no it is depressing to me too!
Best sho EVER!!!!
Am I the only one who finds this extremely depressing?
beautiful. happy 100th birthday, Lucille Ball! The world still loves you.
this is such a sweet, sweet song dedicated to the one you deeply love..Timeless, classic..Thank you for the post.
@weightfeather1 – sorry I missed that : / Great song no matter what the dates are around it all : )
@mkrobinson95 Yup! Look a little further down the comments list. I put in a date correction note and circumstances of Ernie’s accident a couple of weeks ago. Thanks!
@weightfeather1 – to be precise, Kovac’s died over a year and half after this episode was filmed. The episode was filmed on 3/2/1960, Ball filed for divorce the day after, and Kovacs died on 1/13/1962. Still sad circumstances for everyone though …
Michael Buble has his own version of this song. I love it!
@SoUrTheWolfGrrrl wasn’t it great? I wish we praised and sought after true classic talent like this these days – now its about image.
@SoUrTheWolfGrrrl There is still talent out there, just not in the mainstream music which to me is very sad.
This is such a beautiful song but sad since it was the end for i love lucy and the end for lucy and desi’s marriage
@bigkevcxza Yes. He died on March 3rd 1966.
didnt William Frawley die a few years after the show ended?
@TheStanbabe Just for the record, while headed home from a party early in the morning of January 13th, 1962, Ernie died when he crashed a Corvair station wagon into a telephone pole on a rain slicked corner. The party was at Milton Berle’s home: an adoption/cocktail party for their new baby. He’d had a long day, little food and a moderate amount of alcohol. He probably never knew that he’d been fatally injured. He was found near his wrecked car with his lighter and cigar, as if expecting help.
I love this song and especially Edie’s beautiful rendition, but I have a hard time watching this because I know the backstory about this episode, the changes that were about to happen in Lucy and Desi’s life and especially sad to me is the fact that Edie would be a widow only a few months later and Ernie would be gone.
Thank you so much for uploading this!!! I use to always search for this scene, but never could find it. Just getting to see everybody’s ture personal expressions on the set and knowing it touched all the viewers hearts the same, as well. I knew Edie never recorded this. Somebody should have and/or should just release this on its own. This is so beautiful.
