... a song by Carmen McRae ... I read the lyrics from a book, but was unable to find the song ...
Love is funny or it's sad
Or it's quiet or it's mad,
It's a good thing or it's bad -
But beautiful.
Beautiful to take a chance
And if you fall you fall
And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all
Love is tearful or it's gay
It's a problem or it's play
It's heartache either way -
But beautiful.
And I'm thinking if you were mine
I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful
I know.
