Shirley Bassey - It Must Be Him lyrics

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

I shall die

After a while, I'm myself again

I pick the pieces off the floor

I put my heart on the shelf again

He'll never hurt me anymore

I'm not a puppet on a string

I'll find somebody new someday

That's when the phone begins to ring

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

I shall die

Oh, hello, hello

My dear God, it must be him

But it's not him, and then I die

Again I die

Oh, hello, hello

My dear God, it must be him

But it's not him, and then I die

Again I die, I shall die
