But Not For Me Lyrics - Stardust...the Great American Songbook: Volume Iii - Rod Stewart

Old Man Sunshine, listen, you, 

Never tell me dreams come true, 

Just try it, and I'll start a riot, 

Oprah Winfrey don't you dare, 

Ever tell me she will care, 

I'm certain, it's the final curtain. 

I never want to hear from any cheerful Pollyannas, 

Who tell you fate supplies a mate, 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've found more clouds of gray 

Than any Russian play 

Could guarantee

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

I was a fool to fall 

And get that way 

Hi ho! Alas! 

And also, lackaday! 

Although I can't dismiss 

The memory of her kiss 

I guess 

She's not for me 

It all began so well 

But what an end 

This is the time 

A fellow needs a friend 

The climax of the plot 

Should be a marriage knot 

But there's 

No knot for me 

Although I can't dismiss 

The memory of her kiss 

I guess 

She's not for me
