Not For Me

Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains 
And I can't hear the music for the pain 
I see such happiness for some, but not for me 
With love, I always try so hard to get it right 
I find it gone just when I think I might 
Regretfully I see it last for some, but not for me 
Out of reach of all the things I want to have and hold 
I've come to just accept that's how it goes 
I've come so close 
Not for me, it's not for me to question, I suppose 
But I keep wonderin' what the future holds 
Why must it be? 
That life's so sweet for some, but not for me 
Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains 
And I can't see the sunshine for the pain 
But I see such happiness for some, but not for me 
For me it rains, there's only pain 
It's not for me
