They Say

Artie Shaw


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 learn, my heart has been burned.
They say I shouldn't dream of your face in the gloom.
They say that all my dreams will be nightmares too soon.
Let them talk. Let them say what they want to -
If it makes them feel happy that way -
I know I'll always love you - no matter what they say.
