Not for Me - Lowx

Ballads are being sang But not for me Church bells are being rang But not for me I am without love But I don't doubt love can be Warm and tender for some But not for me Poems are being read But not for me Prayers are being said But not for me I've never known love Won't been shown love, you see And baby there is such a thing But not for me So let all of your singers a-sing But not for me And let all of your church bells a-ring But not for me And if tomorrow All your sorrows should begin Just like mine then you'll cry But not for me No, not me Never for me

Dirty sunrise creepin' in Broken bottles gilled within The room is black; the blinds are drawn I don't remember anything What I've done or where I've been Another night has come and gone This is not for me No This is not for me No This life is not for me No This is not for me No Anymore The Devil smiles and laughs at me Says, "You'll be back; just wait and see You know I've heard this all before" And I said, "You can take your high life in the hills Your cocaine lies and whiskey thrills I don't need you anymore" This is not for me No This is not for me No This life is not for me No This is not for me No Oh The only thing that makes me whole again Is to stand right here before you in the sun Yeah Oh I keep runnin' 'til the very end For the life I've lived Is not the life I want Dirty sunrise creepin' in Broken bottles gilled within In a place I don't belong This is not for me No This is not for me No This life is not for me No This life is not for me No Anymore Yeah You can keep your life I don't want anymore I'm gonna leave it all behind, yeah I'm gonna leave it all behind, yeah I don't want no more Don't want no more Yeah

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

Oh, I've tried At least I think I have Going out on dates Walking holding hands Eating ice cream in the park Oh, I've tried Such a fool I was For making concert plans And booking flights to find Another woman in his arms I'm tired of looking for love In all the wrong places So tired of breaking my heart For all of these faces What if there is no one and only What if that kind of life is not for me It doesn't mean that I hate lonely But what if love is not for me? Not for me Oh, I've tried Thought that I would die From crying my heart out My tears were running dry I lost the faith that I had I'm tired of looking for love In all the wrong places So tired of breaking my heart For all of these faces What if there is no one and only? What if that kind of life is not for me? It doesn't mean that I hate lonely But what if love is not for me? Watching my friends from the sidelines As the years keep passing by I keep wondering if I'll have that The love that I'm supposed to find I'm tired of looking in all the wrong places So tired of breaking for all of these faces What if there is no one and only What if that kind of life is not for me It doesn't mean that I hate lonely But what if love is not for me? Not for me Not for me Not for me What if love is not for me 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
