Nobody’s Heart Belongs To Me / Why Can’t I? lyrics

[Part I: Nobody's Heart Belongs to Me]

[Verse 1]
Nobody's heart belongs to me
Heigh-ho, who cares?
Nobody writes his songs to me
No one belongs to me
That's the least of my cares

[Bridge]
I may be sad at times
And disinclined to play
But it's not bad at times
To go your own sweet way

[Verse 2]
Nobody's arms belong to me
No arms feel strong to me
I admire the moon
As a moon
Just a moon
Nobody's heart belongs to me today

[Part II: Why Can't I?]

[Verse 1]
Feeling the way I do
I'd like to say, "I do"
Heaving a heavenly sigh
Everybody has someone
Why can't I?
[Verse 2]
Creeping to bed alone
Resting my head alone
Only the pillow nearby
Some have a reason for dreaming
Why can't I?

[Bridge]
I feel forsaken
On nights like this
Can't I awaken
To someone's kiss?

[Verse 3]
Only my book in bed
Knows how I look in bed
Nobody hears when I cry
Everybody has someone
Why can't I?
Nobody's heart belongs to me today
