DON'T MAKE A BEGGAR OF ME
(Al Sherman)

Frank Sinatra - 1953


Don't make me beg for your kisses
Beg for your tender embrace
I want your love, not your sympathy
Please don't make a beggar of me

Since I looked in your direction
Your tenderness is all I seem to crave
But when I look for your affection
You smile, my dear, and tell me to behave

Don't make me beg for your kisses
Beg for your tender embrace
I want your love, not your sympathy
Please don't make a beggar of me

While I sigh and keep confessing 
The love I have for you will never die
Somehow, you always keep me guessing 
And wondering how long I'll have to cry

Don't make me beg for your kisses
Beg for your tender embrace
I want your love, not your sympathy
Please don't make a beggar of me
