230. Tell Me More And More (And Then Some)

Billie Holiday

Tell me more and more and then some
You know what I long to hear
I want more and more and then some
Of that I Love You Only Dear

Tell me more and more and then some
The way that you feel and then
When you’ve told that old sweet story
And you’re through, start right in again
I’ve made that old mistake
Know the awful ache
Of a heart that’s double crossed
The waitin’s been so long
It’s hard to be believing
If I’ve missed my guess, happiness is lost

Tell me more and more and then some
You know how I love that stuff
Whisper on from now ’til Doomsday
But I never will hear enough

If miss my guess happiness is lost

Tell me more and more and then some

Whisper on from now ’til Doomsday
But I never will hear enough
