(Friedrich Hollaender) adaptation anglaise Samuel Lerner

This is a song that is burned close to my heart

I often thought and wondered why I appeal to men
How many times I blunder in love and out again
Falling in love again, never wanted to
What am I to do ? Can't help it
Love's always been my game, play it as I may
I was born that way, can't help it

Men cluster to me like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn, I know I'm not to blame
I often thought and wondered why I appeal to men
How many times I blunder in love and out again

Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuss auf Liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine Welt und sonst gar nichts
Das ist, was soll ich machen bau in meine Natur
Ich kann halt lieben nur und sonst gar nichts

Men cluster to me like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn, I know I'm not to blame
Falling in love again, never wanted to
What am I to do ? Can't help it
Falling in love again, never wanted to
I was born that way, can't help it.
