Barry Manilow — Everything Happens to Me

I make a date for golf And you can bet you life it rains I try to give a party And the guy upstairs complains I guess I'll go through life Just catchin' colds and missin' trains Everything happens to me I never miss a thing I've had the 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 mortgagеd all my castles in the air I telеgraphed and called I sent an "Air Mail Special", too Your answer was goodbye And there was even postage due I fell in love just once And then it had to be with you Everything happens to me 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 called I sent an "Air Mail Special", too Your answer was goodbye And there was even postage due I fell in love just once And then it had to be with you Everything happens, everything happens Everything happens to me
