I tell myself what's done is done
|
I tell myself don't be a fool
|
Play the field have a lot of fun
|
It's easy when you play it cool
|
|
I tell myself don't be a chump
|
Who cares, let him stay away
|
That's when the phone rings and I jump
|
And as I grab the phone I pray
|
|
Let it please be him, oh dear God
|
It must be him or I shall die
|
Or I shall die
|
Oh hello, hello my dear God
|
It must be him but it's not him
|
And then I die
|
That's when I die
|
|
After a while, I'm myself again
|
I take the pieces off the floor
|
Put my heart on the shelf again
|
You'll never hurt me anymore
|
|
I'm not a puppet on a string
|
I'll find somebody else someday
|
That's when the phone rings, and once again
|
I start to pray
|
|
Let it please be him, oh dear God
|
It must be him, it must be him
|
or I shall die, Or I shall die
|
Oh hello, hello my dear God
|
It must be him but it's not him
|
And then I die
|
That's when I die
|
|

It Must Be Him
