Not for Me

Ballads are being sung

But not for me

Church bells are being rung

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

Or been shown love, you see

And maybe there is such a thing

But not for me

So let all of your singers sing

But not for me

And let all of your church bells ring

But not for me

And if tomorrow

All your sorrows should be

Just like mine then you cry

But not for me

No, not me

Never for me
