Nat “King” Cole
But Beautiful (stereo)
(Jimmy Van Heusen, Johnny Burke)

Love is funny, or it's sad
Or it's quiet, or it's mad
It's a good thing, or it's bad
But beautiful...

Beautiful to take a chance
And if you fall, you fall
And I'm thinking
I wouldn't mind at all

Love is tearful, or it's gay
It's a problem, or it's play
It's a heartache either way
But beautiful...

And I'm thinking, if you were mine
I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful
I know

And I'm thinking, if you were mine
I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful
That would be but beautiful...
I know
