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
