I Dont Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You by Victor Young Lyrics

(Verse)
Why did you let me love you?
Why did you let me fall?
Why should it be
When it's plain to see
That you can't see me at all?

(Chorus)
I need your love so badly
I love you, oh, so madly
But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

I thought at last I'd found you
But other loves surround you
And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two
You might discover
That I'm the lover
Meant for you
And I'd be true
But what's the use of scheming?
I know I must be dreaming
For I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

(scat break)

And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two
You might discover
That I'm the lover
Meant for you
And I'd be true

But what's the use of scheming?
I know I must be dreaming
For I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
