Everything Happens to Me

This song by the maestro Sinatra is such an endearingly innocent expression that I instantly fell in love with it. It so truly reflects the irony of fate of someone that, at more often than not, is each one of us :)

Though right now I don't think any other thing than the lovely sky is blue, yet I can't help just relishing this number with an 'awww cuteeee!' :) And ABSOLUTELY not without an oozing sense of gratitude for everything that happens to me ;) 

"Everything Happens to me"

Writer(s): Dennis/Adair

Black cats creep across my path

Until Im almost mad

I must have roused the devils wrath

'cause all my luck is bad

I make a date for golf – and you can bet your life it rains.

I try to give a party - but the guy upstairs complains.

I guess I'll go thru life just catching colds and missing trains;

Everything happens to me.

I never miss a thing - I've had measles and the mumps.

And every time I play my ace my partner always trumps.

I guess I'm just a fool who never looks before he jumps;

Everything happens to me.

At first my heart thought you could break this jinx for me.

That love would turn the trick to end despair.

But now, I just can't fool this head that thinks for me.

I've mortgaged all my castles in the air.

I telegraphed and phoned, sent an Air Mail Special, too;

You answer was goodbye - there was even postage due.

I fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you,

Everything happens to me.

I've never drawn a sweepstake, or a bank night at a show.

I thought perhaps this time I'd won, but Lady Luck said no.

And though it breaks my heart, I'm not surprised to see you go,

Everything happens to me,

Everything happens to me.
