[00:00.00]If I Never Sing Another Song
[00:06.79]- Matt Monro
[00:15.18]
[00:16.75]In my heyday
[00:19.62]Young girls wrote to me
[00:22.32]Everybody seemed to have time
[00:25.03]to devote to me
[00:28.56]Everyone I saw
[00:30.28]all swore they knew me
[00:33.17]Once upon a song
[00:35.34]
[00:39.02]Main attraction,
[00:41.89]couldn't buy a seat
[00:44.78]The celebrity celebrities
[00:47.12]were dying to meet
[00:49.96]I've had every accolade
[00:53.13]bestowed on me
[00:55.27]And so you see
[00:58.21]
[00:59.90]If I never sing another song
[01:06.48]It shouldn't bother me
[01:11.98]I've had my share of fame
[01:17.67]You know my name
[01:20.41]
[01:22.26]If I never sing another song
[01:28.82]Or take another bow
[01:34.43]I would get by,
[01:37.92]but I'm not sure how
[01:43.01]
[01:46.23]Always posing,
[01:49.06]but you love it all
[01:51.83]Though you have to learn to act
[01:54.39]like you're above it all
[01:58.07]Everything I did
[01:59.93]the world applauded
[02:02.43]Once upon a star
[02:04.61]
[02:08.22]Framed citations,
[02:11.35]hung on every wall
[02:14.19]Got a scrapbook full of quotes
[02:16.51]I can't recall at all
[02:20.21]There were times
[02:21.24]I felt the world belonged to me
[02:24.87]And so you see
[02:27.92]
[02:29.30]If I never sing another song
[02:35.96]It shouldn't bother me
[02:41.49]I've had my share of fame
[02:47.11]You know my name
[02:49.65]
[02:51.55]If I never sing another song
[02:58.48]Or take another bow
[03:03.88]I would get by,
[03:07.24]but I'm not sure how
[03:13.57]la la la la la la la la-la . . .
