MORE THAN I SHOULD
(Bernie Wayne)
as recorded by Helen Forrest
with Russ Case & his Orchestra
January 1950 New York
More than I should,
I love you more than I should.
My mind says careful, and yet
My heart hasn't learned!
Should I be wise
And say that I'll just bide my time?
Love must have fooled
A lot of wiser hearts than mine!
If you should tire,
And I've been playing with fire,
Remember it's not your fault
My heart has been burned!
For when I fall I give my all,
And even more if I could!
And I can't help loving you
Much more than I should!
If you should tire,
And I've been playing with fire,
Remember it's not your fault
My heart has been burned!
For when I fall I give my all,
And even more if I could!
And I can't help loving you
Much more than I should!
