If you say my singing is off key, my love
You would hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love
?
I wish I had an ear like yours,
A voice that would behave
All I have is
feeling
And the voice God gave
You insist my music goes against the rules
Yes,
but rules were never made for lovesick fools
I wrote this song for you
But you don't
care
It's a crooked song, ah,
But my heart is there
The thing that you would
see if you would play the part
Is even if I'm out of tune I have a gentle heart
I took
your picture with my trusty Rolliflex
And now all I have developed is complex
Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh my love
And forget those rigid rules that undermine my
dream of
A life of love and music with someone who'll understand
That even though I
may be out of tune when I attempt to say
How much I love you
And all that matters is the
message that I bring,
Which is: my dear one, I love you
