(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
