I WAS NEVER MEANT FOR YOU From the musical show "A Night On A Roof Garden" (1912) (Music: Ed Hutchison / Lyrics: Lee Barth & Ruby Lusby) Willie Dunlay (Theatre Production) - 1912 Gee, I feel so blue, far away my thoughts do wander To spots in Cupid's loveland, then I sit and ponder Of all the pretty faces that have smiled on me And oh, if but the lovelight in their eyes I could but see Strangely now it seems, Cupid's dart it does some missing From the girlie sweet there is no kissing At times I feel so sad, just a smile would make me glad I feel so blue to think of you alone Ev'rywhre I go, all the girls I know, listen, dear, I love you There's a brunette too, one with eyes of blue, girls like you are very few That one looks petite, this one smiles so sweet, and for you what would I do Now it comes to me, you can plainly see I was never meant for you I know what I'll do, now that I am feeling lonely The smiles I gave away were meant for you, dear, only But since you have refused them and have turned your eyes away I hope that you will miss them on some near future day Somewhere there's a girl, one whose eyes with love are gleaming Now through all these hours of her I'm dreaming I wish that she were mine, but will abide my time I will forget, but not regret alone Ev'rywhre I go, all the girls I know, listen, dear, I love you There's a brunette too, one with eyes of blue, girls like you are very few That one looks petite, this one smiles so sweet, and for you what would I do Now it comes to me, you can plainly see I was never meant for you (Contributed by Mel Priddle - November 2017)
