ViTaMeA

Words & Music by Jack Wolf, Joel Herron, Frank Sinatra, 1951
Recorded by Billie Holiday, 1958

 
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 that Devil has known.

Bridge:
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 had 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.
