But Beautiful Songtext
von Carmen McRae

Who can say what love is?
Does it start in the mind or the heart?
When I hear discussions on what love is
Everybody speaks a different part

Love is funny, or it′s sad
Or it's quiet, or it′s mad
It's a good thing, or it's bad
But beautiful


Beautiful to take a chance
And if you fall, you fall
And I′m thinking
I wouldn′t mind at all

Love is tearful, or it's gay
It′s a problem, or it's play
It′s a heartache either way
But beautiful

And I'm thinking if you were mine
I′d never let you go
And that would be but beautiful
Yes, that would be oh, so beautiful
That I'd never let you go, go
