Won't You
Be Kind?

Won’t you be kind
When you say goodnight to me?
I’ve had a wonderful time.
Tonight was so magic
And it would be tragic
If all of this wonder were rendered asunder.
So often we find
That our dreams are not to be.
I want to keep what I find.
So be careful what you say
Before you take my heart away...
Won’t you please be kind?

Won’t you be kind
When you say goodbye to me?
I’m not as strong as I seem.
Farewells can be breezy
But don’t leave me queasy
By acting like parting’s a little too easy.
Don’t leave me behind
With no passing thought for me.
Remember that once you were mine.
And be careful what you say
The day you throw my heart away...
Won’t you please be kind?
