They're writing songs of love, but not for me
|
A lucky star's above, but not for me
|
With love to lead the way,
|
I've found more clouds of grey
|
Than any Russian play could guarantee
|
|
I was a fool to fall and get that way
|
Heigh ho, alas, and also lack-a-day
|
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss
|
I know she's not for me
|
|
It all began so well, but what an end
|
This is the time a feller needs a friend
|
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss
|
I'm so well aware she's not for me
|

But Not For Me
