Alone Too Long - Nat King Cole

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
