Vanity: Vanity: Vanity - Sarah Vaughan/Barney Kessel/Joe Comfort/Count Basie

Composed by：Guy B. Wood

They call it vanity

Because I'd rather be all by myself

Instead of laughing with the crowd

If I don't care to be part of their gaiety

They often say to me

Don't be so proud

But how are they to know

I'm looking high and low

For love that used to be my own?

I never even glance

When offered new romance

I can't because I'm yours alone

'Til you forgive again

I'll never live again

So will it be as long as we are far apart

It may be vanity to think you'll come to me

But is it vanity to hide a broken heart?

But how are they to know

I'm looking high and low

For love that used to be my own?

I never even glance

When I'm offered new romance

I can't

I can't because I'm yours alone

'Til you forgive again

I'll never live again

So will it be as long as we are far apart

It may be vanity to think you'll come to me

But is it vanity to hide a broken heart?

But is it vanity to hide a broken heart?

A broken heart?
