If I Never Sing Another Song - Matt Monro

In my heyday

Young girls wrote to me

Everybody seemed to have time

To devote to me

Everyone I saw

All swore they knew me

Once 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
