Nobody's heart belongs to me,
Hi-ho, who cares!
Nobody writes his songs to me,
No-one belongs to me,
That's the least of my cares!
I may be sad at times
And disinclined to play,
But it's not bad at times
To go your own sweet way!
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!
I may be sad at times
And disinclined to play,
But it's not bad at times
To go your own sweet way!
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!
