NOT ME

I once knew all the answers
I stood on certain ground
A picture of true happiness
Confidence so effortless
No brighter could be found

I never asked the questions
That trouble me today
I knew all there was to know
Love worn lightly, put on show
A conquest on display

And who would have thought his love could be so good ?
Not me, not me
My secrets and my passions understood ?
Not me, not me
Who would have guessed he'd throw his world away

To be with someone till his dying day ?
Not me, not me
I shall not envy lovers
But long for what they share
An empty room is merciless
Don't be surprised if I confess
I need some comfort there

And who would have thought his love could be so good ?
Not me, not me
My secrets and my passions understood ?
Not me, not me
Who would have guessed he'd throw his world away
To be with someone till his dying day ?
Not me, not me

But not me, oh not me
