words and music by Irving Berlin
The sheet music:
Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
Something has vanished
Something has gone
I know it, I feel it
We’re not getting on
I seem to please you less
The harder I try
Something has happened
What can it be?
I know it, I feel it
You’re tired of me
I love you much too much
And maybe that’s why
Chorus
Maybe it’s because I love you too much
Maybe that is why you love me so little
Maybe when I answered yes
Maybe I became a bore
Maybe if I loved you less
Maybe you would love me more
Maybe it’s because I’ve kissed you too much
Maybe that is why my kiss means so little
Maybe with a love so great and a love so small
Maybe I’ll be left with no love at all
