BILLIE HOLIDAY - TELL ME MORE AND MORE (AND THEN SOME) lyrics

Billie Holiday

Tell me more and more and then some

You know what I long to hear

I want more and more and then some

Of that "I Love You Only Dear"

Tell me more and more and then some

The way that you feel and then

When you've told that old sweet story

And you're through, start right in again

I've made that old mistake

Know the awful ache

Of a heart that's double crossed

The waitin's been so long

Hard to believ'in

If I've missed my guess, happiness is lost

Tell me more and more and then some

You know how I love that stuff

Whisper on from now

'til Doomsday

But I never will hear enough

Tell me more and more and then some

The way that you feel and then

When you've told that old sweet story

And you're through, start right in again

I've made that old mistake

Know the awful ache

Of a heart that's double crossed

The waitin's been so long

Hard to believ'in

If I've missed my guess, happiness is lost

Tell me more and more and then some

You know how I love that stuff

Whisper on from now

'til Doomsday

But I never will hear enough
