Songtexte My One Bad Habit - Carmen McRae , Dave Brubeck

I neither smoke nor drink nor swear, my habits are sublime
And at the risk of seeming square, resist temptation all the time
One weakness I possess in all meekness I confess
My one bad habit is falling in love and falling right out again

My resolution, forget the past, don't fall too fast and make it last
The dreams that mattered have all been shattered
They're long since scattered, gone
My grand illusion was all delusion, my revolution is on

To break that habit of falling in love with someone who doesn't care
I'm out to conquer, so love beware
No more despair in this love affair
It's now or never, my last endeavor, to love forevermore

So please treat me gently for evidently your bad
Habit like my bad habit is falling in love, just
One little shove and I'll start falling again, yeah
I'll start falling again

Oops
Let's start falling again
