But not for me❤
They're writing songs of love, but not for me
A lucky star's above, but not for me
With love to lead the way
I've found more clouds of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee
I was a fool to fall and get that way
Hi-ho alas, lack-a-day
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss
I guess she's not for me
They're writing songs of love, but not for me
A lucky star's above, but not for me
With love to lead the way
I've found more clouds of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee
I was a fool to fall and get that way
Hi-ho alas, lack-a-day
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss
I guess she's not for, I guess she's not for
I guess she's not for me

I didn't even know who was Chet Baker until I clicked into a YouTube suggestion named something like 1 hour jazzy doomer music... and it was worth it!

This takes me right back to my college days in the middle fifties when all we listened to was cool jazz, and I first heard Chet Baker, and he became my favorite.

You must be an older kinda guy. I hope CB was there for all your loves and all your heartaches. Good music soothes yet stimulates our souls. I found Baker in college too...twenty years later and I'm sure other cats dug him twenty years past me. It is always relevent.

@19rebel57 Right on, old timer. I'm glad you're still kicking, and that YouTube could help you listen to some of the music of your time.
