They Say Songtext
von Ethel Waters

They say you have no lips for a fool such as I
They say you just believe in hello and goodbye
And they say that the one I admire
Isn′t even remotely concerned
And that I'll go on playing with fire
Until I have learned my heart has been burned
They say I shouldn′t dream of your face in the moon
They say all of my dreams will be nightmares too soon
Let 'em talk, let 'em think what they want to
If it makes them feel happy that way
′Cause I know I′ll always love you no matter what they say


Let 'em say you have no lips for a fool such as I
Yes, let ′em say you just believe in hello and goodbye
And what do I care if they say the one I admire
Isn't even remotely concerned
And that I′m a fool just to go on playing with fire
Until I learn my heart has been burned
They say I shouldn't dream of your face in the moon
Let ′em say all of my dreams will be nightmares too soon
Let 'em talk, let 'em think what they want to
If it makes them feel happy that way
′Cause I know I′ll always love you no matter what they say
