But Not For Me Lyrics by Billie Holiday

But Not For Me Lyrics

    George and ira gershwin

    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 russain 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 mem'ry of his kiss, i guess he's mot 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.
