Frank Sinatra There but for You Go I song lyrics

This is hard to say, but as I wandered though the lea,

I felt for just a fleeting moment that I suddenly was free

Of being lonely that I close my eyes

And saw the very reason why.

I saw a man with his head bowed low,

His heart had no place to go,

I looked and I thought to myself with a sigh,

There but for you go I.

I saw a man walking by the sea,

Alone with the tide was he.

I looked and I thought as I watched him go by,

There but for you go I.

Lonely men around me, trying not to cry,

Till the day you found me, there among them was I.

I saw a man who had never known

A love that was all his own.

I thought as I thanked all the stars in the sky,

There but for you go I.
