Lyrics

You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true

You, my dear, are exceptionally beautiful, almost unbelievably so.

And I am a fool for beauty

I am easily captivated by beauty and consider myself foolish for it.

Fooled by a feeling that because I have found you

I am deceived by the emotion that finding you means I could possess and control you.

I could have bound you too

This implies a potential desire to restrict or limit you in a relationship.


You are too beautiful for one man alone

Your beauty surpasses what one man can appreciate fully.

For one lucky fool to be with

Expresses the idea that being with you is a stroke of luck for any fool.

When there are other men

Acknowledges the presence of other men who also admire you.

With eyes of their own to see with

Suggests that others have their own perspectives to appreciate your beauty.


Love does not stand sharing

Love is not comfortable with sharing, especially when one truly cares.

Not if one cares

If someone cares, sharing love is not acceptable.

Have you been comparing

Ponders if the listener has been comparing the quality of the speaker's kisses with others.

My every kiss with theirs

Implies a concern about the listener's judgment regarding the speaker's affection.


If, on the other hand, I'm faithful to you

If the speaker remains faithful, it's not out of obligation but genuine emotion.

It's not through a sense of duty

Rejects the idea of faithfulness solely based on a sense of duty.

You are too beautiful

Reiterates the belief that the listener's beauty is beyond measure.

And I am a fool for beauty

The speaker repeats their acknowledgment of being a fool for beauty.


Love does not stand sharing

My every kiss with theirs
