Al Jolson
You Are Too Beautiful
You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true
And I am too drunk with beauty
Drunk with a feeling that the arms that possess you
Really caress you too
You are too beautiful for one man alone
For one lucky fool to be with
When there are other men
With eyes of their own to see with
Love can not stand sharing
Not if one cares
You will be comparing
My every kiss with theirs
You know I care and I'll be faithful to you
Not through a sense of duty
You are too beautiful
And I am too drunk with beauty
Like all fools I believe what I want to believe
My foolish heart can see what foolish hearts can see
I thought I'd found a miracle, I thought that you adored me
But it was not a miracle it was merely a mirage before me
You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true
And I am too drunk with beauty
Drunk with a feeling that my arms that possess you
Really caress you too
You are too beautiful for one man alone
For one lucky fool to be with
When there are other men
With eyes of their own to see with
Love can not stand sharing
Not if one cares
You will be comparing
My every kiss with theirs
You know I care and I'll be faithful to you
Not through a sense of duty
You are too beautiful
And I am too drunk with beauty
