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 - can guarantee I was a fool to fall - and get this way Ah ho alas and awe - so lackaday Although I can't dismiss The memory of her kiss I guess she's not - she's not for me Old man sunshine - listen you Never tell me dreams come true Just try it - and all start a riot Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare Ever tell me she will care I'm certain - it's the final curtain I never want to here from any Cheerful Polly-Anna's Who tell you fate supplies a Mate - it's all bananas It all began so well - but what an end This is the time - a fellow needs a friend When every happy plot Ends with a marriage knot And there's no knot, no (k)not for me

They're writing songs of love But not for me, A lucky star's above With love to lead the way, I've found more clouds of gray Than any Russian play Can guarantee I was a fool to fall And get that way; Hi ho alas and also lackaday Although I can't dismiss the memory of his kiss I guess he's not He's not for me

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, he will care I'm certain, it's the final curtain I never want to hear from any cheerful Pollyanna's 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 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 his kiss I guess, he's not for me 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 his kiss I guess, he's not for me

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 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 his kiss I guess he's not for me He's knocking on a door, but not for me He'd planned 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 fella needs a friend When every happy plot ends with the marriage knot And there's no knot for me

There's a crow flying Dark and ragged, tree to tree He's black as the highway that's leading me Now he's diving down To pick up on something shiny I feel like that black crow Flying in a blue sky I took the ferry to the highway Then I drove to a pontoon plane I took a plane to a taxi and a taxi to a train I've been traveling so long How am I ever gonna know my home When I see it again? I'm like a black crow, flying In a blue, blue sky In search of love and music My whole life has been illumination, corruption Diving, diving, diving Diving down to pick up on Every shiny thing Just like that black crow, flying In a blue sky I looked at the morning After being up all night I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light I looked out the window and saw That ragged soul take flight I saw a back crow flying In a blue sky Oh, I'm like a black crow Flying In a blue sky

If you could be so kind To help me find my mind I'd like to thank you in advance Know this before you start My soul's been torn apart I lost my mind in a wild romance My future is my past Its memory will last I'll live to love the days gone by Each day that comes and goes Is like the one before My mind is lost 'til the day I die Words would fail me if I tried to describe him Though I know he's not what he should have been He was the Devil with the face of an angel He was cruel and sweet, sweet and cruel as homemade sin If you could be so kind To help me find my mind I'd like to thank you in advance Know this before you start And my soul's been torn apart I lost my mind in a wild romance Words would fail me if I tried to describe him Though I know he's not what he should have been He was the Devil with the face of an angel He was cruel and sweet, sweet and cruel as homemade sin If you could be so kind To help me find my mind I'd like to thank you in advance Know this before you start And my soul's been torn apart I lost my mind in a wild romance I lost my mind in a wild romance Romance
