SINGLE IS BETTER THAN WRONG
(Moore / Feller) (1959)

Tommy Leonetti


When I'm weary of dreamin' alone
I remember the girls I've known
But I say when the feelin' grows strong
Ah well, single is better than wrong.

When I think of the life I've missed
And remember the lips I've kissed
When I long just to feel I belong
I say, single is better than wrong.

Love is such a gamble
I've seen them win and lose
And I'm not takin' any chances
On a lifetime with the blues.

Now I face ev'ry night with a sigh
As I watch all the lovers go by
Tell me why should I envy the throng
If single is better than wrong.
