[Verse 1]
I gave my heart
I gave my love
Oh ho, my darling
I am true
Doing the best
The best I can (the best I can)
But it's not good
Enough for you
[Verse 2]
I tried so hard
So hard to please
Oh ho, my darling
What more can I do
Doing the best
The best I can (the best I can)
But it's not good
Enough for you (for you)
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
I'll be a dreamer
I'll be a fool
Oh ho, my darling
My whole life through
Doing the best
The best I can (the best I can)
But it's not good
Enough for you (for you)
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
I'll be a dreamer
I'll be a fool
Oh ho, my darling
My whole life through
Doing the best
The best I can (the best I can)
But it's not good
Enough for you (for you)
[Outro]
But it's not good
Enough for you
