Lyrics Mixed Emotions - Percy Faith, Rosemary Clooney

Mixed Emotions

I have mixed emotions
When it comes to loving you
I know I shouldn’t like the things you shouldn’t do
But if you were perfect
It wouldn’t be the same
To a tiger a tiger’s not a tiger if he’s tame
But when you’re near me I am happy just alone with you
But when you’re far away from me I’m awfully blue
You’re the bitter and the sweet combined
So what am I to do
I have mixed emotions over you
(musical interlude)
I have mixed emotions
When it comes to loving you
I know I shouldn’t like the things you shouldn’t do
But if you were perfect
It wouldn’t be the same
To a tiger a tiger’s not a tiger if he’s tame
But when you’re near me I am happy just alone with you
But when you’re far away from me I’m awfully blue
You’re the bitter and the sweet combined
So what am I to do
I have mixed emotions over you
