Billie Holiday
"But Not for Me"

TheyпїЅre writing songs of love, but not for me
A lucky starпїЅs above, but not for me
With love to lead the way
IпїЅve 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 canпїЅt dismiss the memory of his kiss, I guess heпїЅs mot for me

HeпїЅs knocking on a door, but not for me
HeпїЅll plan a two by four, but not for me
I know that loveпїЅs a game
IпїЅm puzzled, just the same
Was I the moth or flame
IпїЅm all at sea
It all began so well, but what an end
This is the time a feller needs a friend
When every happy plot ends with the marriage knot
And thereпїЅs no knot for me
