BEGGING FOR LOVE
(Irving Berlin)

Rudy Vallée & His Connecticut Yankees
Also recorded by : Irving Berlin; 
Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians.


I said goodbye to you with head unbowed
I couldn’t cry for you, I was too proud
I said I’m through with you, so unconcerned
No more to do with you, but I’ve returned.

I’m here under your window
A miserable beggar
Begging for love.
All of my skies are grey since we parted

Don’t send me away empty hearted
So humbly I stand my heart in my hand
Just begging for love.

(Instrumental Interlude)

Don’t send me away empty hearted
So humbly I stand, my heart in my hand
Just begging for love.
