But Not for Me Songtext
von Frank Sinatra
But Not for Me Songtext
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 can guarantee
I was a fool to fall
And get this way
Hi ho, alas and also lackaday
Although I can't dismiss
The memory of her kiss
I guess she's not, she′s not for me
Old man sunshine, listen you
Never tell me dreams come true
Just try it, and I′ll start a riot
Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare
Ever tell me she will care
I′m certain, it's the final curtain
I never want to hear from any cheerful Polly-Anna′s
Who tell you "Fate supplies a mate"
It's all bananas
It all began so well
But what an end
This is the time
A fella needs a friend
When every happy plot
Ends with a marriage knot
And there′s no knot
No, not for me
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 can guarantee
I was a fool to fall
And get this way
Hi ho, alas and also lackaday
Although I can't dismiss
The memory of her kiss
I guess she's not, she′s not for me
Old man sunshine, listen you
Never tell me dreams come true
Just try it, and I′ll start a riot
Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare
Ever tell me she will care
I′m certain, it's the final curtain
I never want to hear from any cheerful Polly-Anna′s
Who tell you "Fate supplies a mate"
It's all bananas
It all began so well
But what an end
This is the time
A fella needs a friend
When every happy plot
Ends with a marriage knot
And there′s no knot
No, not for me
