Lyrics Marlene Dietrich

Marlene Dietrich

Such Trying Time

A man I know is falling for me

A man I know is acting like a fool

While I'll remain as cool to him as ice

This man I know keeps calling for me

This man I know is far too grand

Why can't he understand

He's so in losing dice

Such trying times

Such trying times

Why do we live in such exasperating times?

Such trying times

Such trying times

If only we could find a reason or the rhymes

This man I knew has given it up

This man I knew has waited far too long

And suddenly been strong enough

To break the tie

This man I knew is living it up

This man I knew has buried all his past

And found true love at last

But and I

Such trying times

Such trying times

Why do we live in such exasperating times?

Such trying times

Such trying times

If only we could find a reason for the rhymes

Such trying times

Such trying times

Why do we live in such exasperating times?

Such trying times

Such trying times

If only we could find a reason for the rhymes

Why do we live in such exasperating times?
