But Not For Me
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
Hi ho alas and also lackaday
Although I can't dismiss
The memory 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 the marriage knot
And there's no knot for me
