It Never Was You Lyrics by Lotte Lenya

Lotte Lenya: American Theater Songs

[TINA]
I've been running through rains
And the winds that follow after
For one certain face
And an unforgotten laughter
I've been following trails
I've been staring after ships
For a certain pair of eyes
And a certain pair of lips
Yes, I looked everywhere
You can look without wings
And I found a great variety
Of interesting things
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you
An occasional sunset reminded me
Or a flower growing high on a tulip tree
Or one red star hung low in the west
Or a heartbreak call from a mеadowlark's nest
Made me think for a momеnt, "Maybe it's true
I found you in the stars, in the call, in the blue"
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you
Anywhere, anywhere you
