Too Good to Be True - Teddy Wilson And His Orchestra, Roy Eldridge

I saw some sad times I said

I’d had enough of heartbreak

I told myself that I could never fall again

Then sure as fate she came, I

Just had to get to her and

She gave me all her numbers, gave me all her names

Cold and lonely without you

Don’t know if I can make it through

Maybe you’ll hear this song

You been gone way too long

Too good to let it go, too good to be true

We left and we went home

Unbelievable

I looked into her eyes, thunder in my heart

And we were joined forever

Our bodies slick together

I told her everything, confessions in the dark

Cold and lonely without you

Don’t know if I can make it through

Maybe you’ll hear this song

You been gone way too long

Too good to let it go, too good to be true

She painted inspiration

Onto my fractured soul, I

Was never sure she knew how much she meant to me

She never trusted me, I know she didn’t see

The night she left she killed the heart inside of me

Cold and lonely without you

Don’t know if I can make it through

Maybe you’ll hear this song

You been gone way too long

Too good to let it go, too good to be true

Cold and lonely without you

Don’t know if I can make it through

Maybe you’ll hear this song

You been gone way too long

Too good to let it go, too good to be true
