It Must Be Him
I tell myself, what's done is done
I tell myself, don't be a fool,
Play the field, have a lot of fun
It's easy when you play it, cool
I tell myself, don't be a chump
Who cares, let him stay away
That's when the phone rings and I jump
And as I grab the phone, I pray
Let it, please, be him, oh, dear God
It must be him, it must be him
Or I shall die, or I shall die
Or I shall die, or I shall die
Oh, hello, hello, my dear God
It must be him but it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
After a while, I'm myself again
I pick the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again
You'll never hurt me anymore
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'll find somebody else someday
That's when the phone rings, and once again
I start to pray
Let it, please, be him, oh, dear God
It must be him , it must be him
or I shall die, or I shall die
Oh, hello, hello, my dear God
It must be him but it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
