(words & music by doc pomus - mort shuman)

I gave my heart

I gave my love

Oh ho, my darling

I am true

Doin' the best

The best i can

But it's not good enough for you



I tried so hard

So hard to please

Oh ho, my darling

What more can i do

Doin' the best

The best i can

But it's not good enough for you



You know i was the kind who'd run

Any time you'd call

I guess i was the only one

Who didn't mind at all

I'll be a dreamer

I'll be a fool

Oh ho, my darling

My whole life through

Doin' the best

The best i can

But it's not good enough for you



You know i was the kind who'd run

Any time you'd call

I guess i was the only one

Who didn't mind at all

I'll be a dreamer

I'll be a fool

Oh ho, my darling

My whole life through

Doin' the best

The best i can

But it's not good enough for you

But it's not good enough for you
