You Shouldn't Look At Me That Way

Am I fine? Am I pleasing? Are you pitying? Are you teasing? You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way Should a glance from you just shoot through me If a glimpse of you could undo me You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way Time, among all your enemies, Leaves you nothing but bitter memories From the first blush of affection To avoiding your reflection You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way Now the flashbulbs may dazzle While you're figuring out this puzzle You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way Don't take more than I offer No, my love, or I'll make you suffer You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way Time, among all of your enemies, Makes disguises from drastic remedies From the first brush with perfection To avoiding your own reflection You shouldn't look at me You shouldn't look at me that way
