But Not for Me (From "Manhattan") Lyrics

But Not for Me - Sarah Vaughan

Written by:I. Gershwin/G. Gershwin

 

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 you will care

 

I'm certain it's the final cutain

 

I never want to hear from and cheerful Pollyannas

 

Who tell you

 

It's all bananas

 

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 found more clouds of grey

 

Than any Russian play could guarantee

 

I was a fool

 

To fall and get that way

 

Hi ho Alas and also lack a day

 

Although I can't dismiss

 

The memory of her kiss

 

 

I guess she's not for me
