Eddie Jefferson - Yardbird Suite lyrics

It's hard to learn How tears can burn one's heart But that's a thing that I found out Too late I guess, 'cause I'm in a mess My faith has gone Why lead me on this way? I thought there'd be no price on love But I had to pay If I could perform one miracle I'd revive your thoughts of me Yet I know that it's hopeless You could never really care That's why I despair I'll go along hoping Someday you'll learn The flame in my heart, Dear Forever will burn
