๐ Lyrics
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'll have more clouds of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee
I was a fool to fall and get that way
Hi-ho and laughs and all, so lack-a-day
Although I can't dismiss the memory of his kiss
I guess he's not for me
I know that love's a game, I'm puzzled all the same
Was I the moth or the flame? I'm all at sea
It all began so well, but what an end
This time a gal could sure use a friend
When every happy plot ends in a marriage knot
And there's no knot for me
La-la-la, la-ba-ba-ba
La-la-la
A lucky star's above, but not for me
With love to lead the way, I'll have more clouds of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee
I was a fool to fall and get that way
Hi-ho and laughs and all, so lack-a-day
Although I can't dismiss the memory of his kiss
I guess he's not for me
I know that love's a game, I'm puzzled all the same
Was I the moth or the flame? I'm all at sea
It all began so well, but what an end
This time a gal could sure use a friend
When every happy plot ends in a marriage knot
And there's no knot for me
La-la-la, la-ba-ba-ba
La-la-la
