But Not For Me sing and play along
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 gray than any Russian play could guarantee.
I was a fool to fall and get that way;
heighho! Alas!
And also, lucky day!
Although I can't dismiss the mem'ry of his kiss,
I guess he's not for me.
He's knocking on a door, but not for me.
He'll plan a two by four,
but not for me.
I know that love's a game;
I'm puzzled, just the same.
Was I the moth or flame?
I'm all at sea.
It all began so well, but what an end!
This is the time a feller needs a friend.
When ev'ry happy plot ends with a marriage knot,
and there's no knot for me.
He's knocking me.
