Lyrics

She was too good to me
How can I get along now
So close, she stood to me
Everything seems so wrong now
She would have brought me the sun
Making me smile
That was her fun
When I was mean to her
She'd never said go away now
I was a king to her
Who's gonna make me gay now?
It's only natural
I'm so blue
She was too good to be true
When I was mean to her
She'd never said go away now
I was a king to her
Who's gonna make me gay now?
It's only natural
I'm so blue
She was too good to be true
Written by: Lorenz Hart, Richard Rodgers
