Singalong! Please Be Good To Me by Sarah Slean

Sarah Slean is my top-favourite-all-time-secret-wishful-gal-pal singer. She has one of those voices that is just kind of magical, and her songs have always punctured my heart. I love this song for its honest and naked plea of what we are all looking for in love: someone who will hold our heart and be good to us.

PLEASE BE GOOD TO ME

by Sarah Slean

I carried my heart unbuttoned

Across the lonely stage

Where all the fools and actors

Circle like birds of prey

But careful with the rose, she knows

Every word of every scene

O Please be good to me

I let the liar have me

The forger and the cheat

Love is the legal tender

They try to steal from me

But tell me how to lose, what you

Want to give away for free?

O Please be good to me

When loves light is shining elsewhere

The cold is hard to shake

But when its shining on you

The winter melts away

I don't want to know how so

I just want to feel the heat

O Please be good to me
