BY MYSELF (Some Enchanted Evening)
Music and lyrics by Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz
Featured in the 1953 film The Band Wagon
I'll go my way by myself
This is the end of romance
I'll go my way by myself
Love is only a dance
I'll try to apply myself
Teach my heart to sing
I'll go my way by myself
Like a bird on the wing
I'll face the unknown
I'll build a world of my own
No one knows better than I, myself
I'm by myself alone.
I'll go my way by myself
Here's how the comedy ends
I'll have to deny myself
Love and laughter and friends
Grey clouds in sky above
Have put a blot on my fun
I'll try to fly high above
For my place in the sun
I'll face the unknown
I'll build a world of my own
No one knows better than I, myself
No-one knows better than I, myself
I wanted love and fell
Now I say what the hell
All of those dark days are gone
'Cause it's solo
All alone
By myself
From now on
