Why did you let me love you?
Why did you let me fall?
Why should it be
When it's plain to see
That you can't see me at all?
I need your love so badly
I love you, oh, so madly
But I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
I thought at last
I'd found you
But other loves
Surround you
And I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two
You might discover
That I'm the lover
Meant for you
I'd be true
But what's the good
Of scheming
I know
I must be dreaming
For I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
And I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two
You might discover
That I'm the lover
Meant for you
I'd be true
But what's the good
Of scheming
I know
I must be dreaming
For I don't stand
A ghost of a chance
With you
