[Verse 1]
I know just what to say
It's just a game I play
Now I'm here on my own

I'd like to be with you
I guess you always knew
Still I'm all alone

I know the story
Got it all worked out

[Chorus]
It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Maybe that's the way my life was meant to be)

It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Love's just a door that's locked and there's no key)

It never happens to me

[Verse 2]
I know my every line
It's just a waste of time
Guess it's all such a shame

I've seen it all before
And every time I'm sure
That it ends up the same

I know the story
Got it all worked out

[Chorus]
Never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Maybe that's the way my life was meant to be)

It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Love's just a door that's locked and there's no key)

It never happens to me

[Verse 3]
I know just what to say
It's just a game I play
Now I'm here on my own

I'd like to be with you
I guess you always knew
Still I'm left all alone


I know the story
Got it all worked out

[Chorus]
It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Maybe that’s the way my life was meant to be)

It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Love's just a door that's locked and there's no key)

It never happens to me

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Coda]
It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Maybe that's the way my life was meant to be)

It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Love's just a door that's locked and there's no key)

It never happens to me
It never happens to me
(Maybe that's the way my life was meant to be)

It never happens to me
