BEWARE MY HEART
(Sam Coslow)

as recorded by June Christy
with orchestra conducted by Pete Rugolo
1957


Beware my heart,
You're getting in too deep.
Take care, my heart,
This is a bit too steep!

Don't listen to the lilt
Of his lovely laughter,
or you will cry for it
Forever after!

Beware my heart
Of violins in the night,
When he is near
They're loaded with dynamite!

And you can never finish a dream
That wasn't meant to start;
Beware, take care my heart!

And you can never finish a dream
That wasn't meant to start;
Beware, take care my heart!
