Please Be Good To Me - Sarah Slean

I carried my heart unbuttoned

Across the lonely stage

Where all the fools and actors

Circle like birds of prey

But careful with the rose, she knows

Every word in every scene

O please be good to me

I let the liar have me The forger and the cheat

Love is the legal tender

They try to steal from me But tell me how you lose, what you

Want to give away for free?

O please be good to me When love’s light is shining elsewhere

The cold is hard to shake

But when it’s shining on you

The winter melts away

I don’t want to know how so I just want to feel the heat

O please be good to me
