"Not Me Not I"

"Not Me Not I"

You mixed me up for someone
Who'd fall apart without you
Yeah you broke my heart for the first time
But I'll get over that too
It's hard to find the reasons
Who can see the rhyme?
I guess that we where seasons out of time
I guess you didn't know me

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the flaws between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry
No not me, not I, not I, no not me, not I

The story goes on without you
And there's got to be another ending
But yeah you broke my heart it won't be the last time
But I'll get over them too
As a new door opens we close the ones behind
And if you search your soul I know you'll find
You never really knew me

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the flaws between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry
No not me, not I, not I, not I, not I

All you said to me
All you promised me
All the mystery never did believe
No I never cry no I never not me not I

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the floors between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry No not I, I won't cry
No not me, not I, not I

This is one of my favourite Delta songs. I really love the emotion and melody in this song.

Yeah, me too, Leona. It's one of my favorites as well. I love her voice on this one. The lyrics are great, and so universal in that all of us go though this sort of thing at least once in life. Songs like "The First Cut Is the Deepest" by Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, and Sheryl Crow, and "Missing You" by John Waite are timeless in their message of hurting/hoping that we all war against inside ourselves. Delta's song captures those feelings and emotions as well as any artist.

Thanks for saying it so well. I just didn't know how to say and you said it exactly how I feel.

Well, hey, you're welcome very much!
