Texty: Molly Johnson. If You Know Love. But Not For Me.

(George & Ira Gershwin)


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, 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

When every happy plot
Ends with a the marriage knot
And there?s
No knot for me
