Kurt Weill
It Never Was You
[BROM]
I've been hunting through woods
I've been fishing over water
For one certain girl
Who's a certain father's daughter
I've been following trails
I've been staring after ships
For a certain pair of eyes
And a certain pair of lips
Yes, I looked everywhere
You can look without wings
And I found a great variety
Of interesting things
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you!
An occasional sunset reminded me
Or a flower growing high on a tulip tree
Or one red star hung low in the west
Or a heartbrеak call from the meadowlark's nest
Madе me think for a moment: "Maybe it's true
I've found her in the star, in the call, in the blue!"
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you
Anywhere, anywhere you
[TINA]
I've been running through rains
And the winds that follow after
For one certain face
And an unforgotten laughter
I've been following signs
I've been searching through the lands
For a certain pair of arms
And a certain pair of hands
Oh, I tried a kiss here
And I tried a kiss there
For when you're out in company
The boys and girls will pair
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you!
