I once knew all the answers,
I stood on certain ground
A picture of true happiness,
confidence so ef fortless
No brighter could be found
I never asked the questions
That trouble me today
I knew all there was to know
Love won't lightly put on show
My conquest's on display
I can't believe it's changing
And who'd have thought
that confidence could die?
Not me, not me, not me, not me
That all I took for granted was a lie
Not me, not me, not me, not me
And who'd have guessed
I'd throw my world away
To be with someone
I'm afraid will say not me
This can never be
Not me
He's in love
But he's not the only one
Who'll be changed
Why has Herodotus come
to see me again?
We're to be married
in three days and yet
Aida, I must make things right with him
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'd have thought
that love could be so good?
Not me, not me
And show me things I nev
er understood
Not me, not me
And who'd have guessed
he'd throw his world away
To be with someone
till he's dying, dying
Not me, not me
And who'd have thought
that love could be so good? good
Not me, not me, not me, not me
My secrets and my passions understood
Oh no, not me, not me, not me
And who'd have guessed
he'd throw his world away
To be with someone to desire in vain
Not me, this can never be
Not me
Not me
Oh, not me
