Lyrics

Teddy mcrae / c. beal / e. fraser
Just when you are near
When i hold you fast
Then my dreams will whisper
You're too lovely to last.
Lips are saying "love"
All worries have passed
And then i get that feeling
You're too lovely to last.
Will i ever know a real love?
So i can forget you
Will i always have to still love?
What am i to do?
Soon the night is gone
Dreams are fading fast
Then i wake up knowing
You're too lovely to last.
Will i ever know a real love?
So i can forget you
Will i always have to still love?
What am i to do?
Soon the night is gone
Dreams are fading fast
Then i wake up knowing
You're too lovely to last
Baby you're too lovely
You're much too lovely to last
