Sarah Vaughan - Be Anything But, Darling, Be Mine

Be a beggar, be a thief

be my sunshine or my grief

be anything but, darling, be mine.

Be a wise man, be a fool

treat me tender or be cruel

be anything but, darling, be mine.

Climb to the top of the ladder

be master of all you survey

fail and it still doesn’t matter

if you love me, everything is ok

Be the angel of my prayers

be the devil, who cares?

be anything but, darling, be mine

Mmm…

Be anything but, darling, please, please, be mine

Mmm…

Be anything, oh but, darling, please be mine

Climb to the top of the ladder

be master of all you survey

fail and it still doesn’t matter

if you love me, everything is ok

Be the angel of my prayers

be the devil, who cares?

be anything, be anything, be anything, but, darling, please, be mine.
