I'm a fool to want you...

Sad but hauntingly beautiful...
I was checking out some jazz on You Tube
and decided to check out this song...
I really wasn't familiar with it..

First listen to this version with Frank Sinatra singing
and photos of the beautiful Ava Gardner.
Frank Sinatra wrote this song for her!


I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too

I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
To share a kiss the Devil has known

Time and time again I said I'd leave you
Time and time again I went away
But then would come the time when I would need you
And once again these words I'd have to say

I'm a fool to want you
Pity me, I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong I can't get along
Without you

Time and time again I said I'd leave you
Time and time again I went away
But then would come the time when I would need you
And once again these words I'd have to say

Take me back, I love you
Pity me, I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong I can't get along without you...



Does anyone write beautiful songs like this any more??
