Please don't tell me how great I am
If you're just gonna walk away
Frankly, I don't give a damn
I'm here now, let's live the day
Don't let's wait another year
Before we dare embrace again
Falter to love and not to fear
Spread wide your heart, let love begin
Please don't waste another word
In lieu of love, then run from me
They're all the same; they've all been heard
Don't tell us both I'm best left free
When it's excitement in your ear
And rambling thoughts that sound like fear
In the stillness of your heart's rush
Remains a shadowed, joyful blush
You found a soul with wide-spread heart
Engaged a mind whose life is art
So, come back, now, to widespread arms
I'll thrill you with feminine charms
Don't tell me, please, how great I am
If you'll deign to walk away
"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn";
Carpe amorem, seize me today
