You Never Can Tell (Kern)



[Verse]
 * Does it seem to you.
 * As it seems to me?
 * For it seems to me
 * this world is just about right


 * Life is like a song
 * Sung the whole day long
 * Nothing can go wrong,
 * the sun was never so bright.


 * Why is it perhaps you'll guess
 * and if you won't I'll have to confess
 * Just when you think you're all right,
 * Love comes along and then it's "Goodnight."

[Chorus]
 * Oh you never can tell
 * Oh you never can say
 * When your heart will rebel
 * Hearts are funny that way


 * You may think you stand the test
 * But you find you're like the rest
 * Oh you cannot tell why
 * And you cannot tell how


 * It may be by and by
 * Or it may happen now
 * Fate arranged it long ago
 * So you never can tell you know.

[Verse]
 * Do I seem the same?
 * Haven't changed my name
 * Nothing else the same
 * seems as it was yesterday


 * Ev'rything looks new
 * Even skies are blue
 * Some new point of view
 * in all I do or I say.


 * I know why I won't deny
 * and you can tell I know if you try
 * I thought love had passed me by
 * There's no more astonished than I.

[Chorus]
 * Oh you never can tell
 * Oh you never can say
 * When your heart will rebel
 * Hearts are funny that way


 * You may think you stand the test
 * But you find you're like the rest
 * Oh you cannot tell why
 * And you cannot tell how


 * It may be by and by
 * Or it may happen now
 * Fate arranged it long ago
 * So you never can tell you know.
