Writer Dolly Parton
Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains 
And I can`t hear the music for the pain 
I see such happiness for some, but not for me 
With love, I always try so hard to get it right 
I find it gone just when I think I might 
Regretfully I see it last for some, but not for me 
Out of reach of all the things I want to have and hold 
I`ve come to just accept that`s how it goes 
I`ve come so close 
Not for me, it`s not for me to question, I suppose 
But I keep wonderin` what the future holds 
Why must it be? 
That life`s so sweet for some, but not for me 
Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains 
And I can`t see the sunshine for the pain 
But I see such happiness for some, but not for me 
For me it rains, there`s only pain 
It`s not for me
