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
Heigh 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 the 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 affair needs a friend
When every happy plot ends with a marriage knot
And thеre's no knot, no, not for me
