Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida movie - Not Me lyrics

rate me

Song by Boyz II Men<br /><br>

I once knew all the answers, I stood on certain ground<br>

A picture of true happiness, confidence so effortless<br>

No brighter could be found<br>

<br>

I never asked the questions that trouble me today<br>

I knew all there was to know, love worn lightly, put on show<br>

A conquest on display<br>

<br>

And who would have thought his love could be so good<br>

Not me, not me<br>

My secrets and my passions understood<br>

Not me, not me<br>

<br>

Who would have guessed he'd throw his world away<br>

To be with someone till his dying day<br>

Not me, not me<br>

<br>

I shall not envy lovers, but long for what they share<br>

An empty room is merciless, don't be surprised if I confess<br>

I need some comfort there<br>

<br>

And who would have thought his love could be so good<br>

Not me, not me<br>

My secrets and my passions understood<br>

Not me, not me<br>

<br>

Who would have guessed he'd throw his world away<br>

To be with someone till his dying day<br>

Not me, not me<br>

<br>

But not me, oh not me<br>

<br>
