DARE I LOVE YOU?


as recorded by Leslie Hutchinson
with orchestra conducted by Charles Shadwell
1940's


Dare I to love you?
Dare I to care?
Dare I to hope for
Your lips to share?

Each time you look at me,
What dreams you start,
And when you touch my hand,
You touch my heart!

Dare I to hold you
Too tenderly?
If I should beg you,
Would you agree?

To you I give my heart and soul
If you should care,
Dare me to love you,
I'll take a stir!

Dare I to hold you
Too tenderly?
Dear, if I beg you,
Would you agree?

To you I give my heart and soul
If you should care,
Dare me to love you,
I'll take a stir!
