The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
When I try to sing, you say I'm off key Why can't you see how much this hurts me With your perfect beauty and your perfect pitch You're a perfect terror When I come around must you always put me down If you say my singing is off key, my love You will hurt my feelings don't you see, my love I wish I had an ear like yours A voice that would behave All I have is feeling and a voice gone deaf You insist my music goes against the rules Yes, but rules were never meant for lovesick fools I wrote this little song for you, but you don't care It's a crooked song, oh but all my heart is there The things that you would see if you would do your part Is even if I'm out of tune I have a gentle heart I took your picture with my trusty Rollaflex And now all I have developed is a complex Possibly in vain I hope you weaken, oh my love And forget these rigid rules that undermine my dream of A life of love and music with someone who'll understand That even though I may be out of tune When I attempt to say how much I love you All that matters is the message that I bring Which is my key one: I love you
