If I Never Sing Another Song

Matt Monro

2

In my heyday, young girls wrote to me

Everybody seemed to have time to devote to me

Everyone I saw all swore they knew meOnce upon a song

Main attraction, couldn′t buy a seat

The celebrity, celebrities were dying to meet

I've had every accolade bestowed on me

And so you see

If I never sing another song

It shouldn′t bother me

I've had my share of fame

You know my name

If I never sing another song

Or take another bow

I would get by

But I'm not sure how

Always posing, but you love it all

Though you have to learn to act like you′re above it all

Everything I did, the world applauded

Once upon a star

Framed citations, hung on every wall

Got a scrapbook full of quotes I can′t recall at all

There were times I felt the world belonged to me

And so you see

If I never sing another song

It shouldn't bother me

I′ve had my share of fame

You know my name

If I never sing another song

Or take another bow

I would get by

But I'm not sure how

La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la

La-la-la-la-la, la-la

La-la-la-la, la-la

La-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
