《How Could I Settle for Less》歌词

[00:00:00] How Could I Settle for Less - Carmen McRae (卡门·麦克蕾)

[00:00:17] Mine was a simple story

[00:00:21] Never a thought of glory

[00:00:25] I did what I did and what I had

[00:00:29] I was glad to posses

[00:00:33] But you changed my whole direction

[00:00:36] And now that I've seen perfection

[00:01:39] Miracles made to measure

[00:01:42] The beautiful things that people

[00:01:46] Rate the greatest success

[00:01:50] I only want you forever

[00:01:53] And you and I close together

[00:01:57] How could I settle for

[00:02:01] How how could I settle

[00:02:05] How could I settle for less

[00:02:10] Tell me tell me tell me

[00:02:13] Tell me daddy how could I settle for less

[00:02:17] I wanna know I want to know

[00:02:22] How could I settle for less

[00:02:26] How could I settle for less

[00:02:30] Tell me

[00:02:32] How
