If I Never Sing Another Song

Matt Monro

In my heyday, young girls wrote to me
Everybody seemed to have time to devote to me
Everyone I saw all swore they knew meOnce upon a song

Main attraction, couldn′t buy a seat
The celebrity, celebrities were dying to meet
I've had every accolade bestowed on me
And so you see

If I never sing another song
It shouldn′t bother me
I've had my share of fame
You know my name

If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
I would get by
But I'm not sure how

Always posing, but you love it all
Though you have to learn to act like you′re above it all
Everything I did, the world applauded
Once upon a star

Framed citations, hung on every wall
Got a scrapbook full of quotes I can′t recall at all
There were times I felt the world belonged to me
And so you see

If I never sing another song
It shouldn't bother me
I′ve had my share of fame
You know my name

If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
I would get by
But I'm not sure how

La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
