You Can't Be Mine

Billie Holiday


You can't be mine 
And someone else's too 
Someday you'll find 
I've been a friend to you 
I don't believe that life's worth living 
I gave you all there was worth giving 
You never cared how I fared or what I do 

I called you mine but I was not to blame 
For all the time you played up to 
Hand and game 
Second hand love I can't see 
It's good for some but not for me 
You can't be mine 
And someone else's too
