Clinton, you can't be a young cockerel anymore. MAYBE was recorded by the Ink spots 1942-06-19, and A KISS TO BUILD A DREAM ON was recorded by Armstrong on 1951-07-24.
Here is a short list of older songs in which the theme, mood and lyrics seem (to me) appropriate to your request.
Ink Spots - If I Didn't Care Ink Spots - MY Prayer Ink Spots - I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire Ink Spots - I'll Get By (As Long As I Have You) McGuire Sisters - Sincerely McGuire Sisters - Ev'ry Day Of My Life Mills Brothers - Be My Life's Companion Tommy Dorsey - I'm Getting Sentimental Over You (instrumental) Harry James - You Made Me Love You (I Didn't Want To Do It) Guy Lombardo - I'm Confess'n That I Love You Bing Crosby - You Belong To My Heart Leon Payne - I Love You Because (You Understand) Bob Wills - Send Me A Red Rose
Going through my CDs I was suprised how many songs are the "Hurtin'" type, like: I'm Dotting Each I With a Tear Drop, or: I Laugh When I Think How I Cried Over You.
