But Not For Me (Remastered) - Billie Holiday

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 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 every happy plot ends with the marriage knot

And there's no knot for me
