Alone Too Long
Dorothy Fields, Arthur Schwartz
I'd kiss you if I dare
I want to, but I'm scared
I should have known
I've been alone too long
My lips are much too still
My arms have lost their skill
My charm has flown
I've been alone too long
It's been years since I have whispered
A foolish love word
And I'd be afraid, I'd sing you a faded song
But if you smile and then
Say "darling, try again"
I'll know you've known
I've been alone too long
But if you smile and then
Say "darling, try again"
I'll know you've known
I've been alone too long
