It’s very clear
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year, but forever and a day!
The radio
And the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go!
But oh my dear
Our love is here to stay
Together we’re going a long long way!
In time the Rockies may crumble
Gibraltar may tumble
They’re only made of clay
But our love is here to stay!

“Love Is Here to Stay” is a popular song and Easy Listening standard. The music was written by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin for the movie The Goldwyn Follies (1938).
“”Love Is Here to Stay” was first performed by Kenny Baker in The Goldwyn Follies but did not reach popularity until it was sung by Gene Kelly to Leslie Caron in the film An American in Paris (1951). The song appeared in Forget Paris (1995) and Manhattan (1979). It can also be heard in the film When Harry Met Sally (1989) sung by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald.
An instrumental version of the song is heard in an episode of TV’s The Honeymooners when Alice turns to Ralph and says: “I loved you ever since the day I walked in your bus and you shortchanged me.”
The song is also used in the musical The 1940’s Radio Hour; however, it was not included in the 2015 Broadway musical An American in Paris.
“Love Is Here to Stay” was the last musical composition George Gershwin completed before his death on July 11, 1937. Ira Gershwin wrote the lyrics after George’s death as a tribute to his brother. Although George had not written a verse for the song, he did have an idea for it that both Ira and pianist Oscar Levant had heard before his death. When a verse was needed, Ira and Levant recalled what George had in mind. Composer Vernon Duke reconstructed the music for the verse at the beginning of the song. Originally titled “It’s Here to Stay” and then “Our Love Is Here to Stay”, the song was finally published as “Love Is Here to Stay”. Ira Gershwin said that for years he wanted to change the song’s name back to “Our Love Is Here to Stay”, but he felt it wouldn’t be right since the song had already become a standard.
Ira Gershwin recalled, “So little footage was given to ‘Love Is Here to Stay’ — I think only one refrain — that it meant little in The Goldwyn Follies.” Oscar Levant remembers the producer for the film calling Gershwin into a conference one afternoon and insisting that he play the entire score for a panel of attendees. The experience infuriated George, who thought that he had progressed past this stage in his career as a composer. S. N. Behrman visited Gershwin a few days before he died and wrote that George told him, “I had to live for this — that Sam Goldwyn should say to me, ‘Why don’t you write hits like Irving Berlin?'”.

Each one of us needs to look after the good of the
people around us, asking ourselves, “How can I help?”
That’s exactly what Jesus did. He didn’t make it easy
for Himself by avoiding people’s troubles, but waded
right in and helped out.
