You Are Too Beautiful Songtext
von Al Jolson

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 wanted to believe
My foolish heart can see what foolish hearts can see
I thought I'd found a miracle, I thought that you′d 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 won't 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
