Elaine Stritch - I Never Know When To Say When Lyrics
I knew on the day I met him he wasn't the man for meI knew I should just forget him, but I had to wait and seeOh, I've been sad beforeAnd I've been had beforeBut, oh, my friend, I won't pretend, it was as bad beforeI should have told my heart to stop and count tenBut then I never know when to say whenI know my way aroundI never play aroundEach time I fall I bet my allHe's gonna stay aroundIt seems that everything is rosy and thenSomehow I never know when to say whenBut now I've learned my lessonAnd it's an easy oneIf I could keep them guessing' (You've got to keep 'em guessin')Keep it fun, kiss and runThe skies are stormy nowMy dreams all bore me nowNo candle lights the lonely nights that lie before me nowI say it's done, it's done, it's over – Amen!But then again, and again, and againI find I never know when, I never know when to say whenBut now I've learned my lessonAnd it's an easy oneIf I could keep them guessing' (You've got to keep 'em guessin')Keep it fun, kiss and runThe skies are stormy nowMy dreams all bore me nowNo candle lights the lonely nights that lie before me nowI say it's done, it's done, it's over – Amen!But then again, and again, and againI find I never know when, I never know when to say when
