Not Me
Radames
I once knew all the answers
I stood on certain ground
A picture of true happiness
Confidence so effortless
No brighter could be foundMereb
Oh, no
Radames
I never asked the questions
That trouble me today
I knew all there was to know
Love worn lightly, put on showMy conquests on display
And who'd have thought that
Confidence could die?
Not me not me
That all I took for granted was a lieNot me not me
And who'd have guessed I'd throw
My world awayTo be with someone I'm afraid will say
Not me not me
Mereb
I can't believe
He's changingOh, no
Not me not me
Not me not me
This can never
BeMereb
He's in love
But he's not the only one
Who'll be changedAmneris
Why hasn’t Radames come to see me again? We’re to be married in three days, Aida I must make things right with him.Aida
I shall not envy lovers
But long for what they shareAmneris
An empty room is merciless
Don't be surprised if I confess
I need some comfort thereAmneris and Aida
And who'd have thought
That love could be so good?
Not me, not me
And show me things I never understood
Not me not meWho'd have guessed he'd
Throw his world away
To be with someone 'til his dying day
Not me not me
Radames, Aida and Amneris
And who'd have thought that love
Could be so good
Not me not me
(My/his) secrets and
(My/his) passions understood
Not me, not meWho'd have guessed
(I'd/ he’d) throw (my/his) world away
To be with someone 'til (my/his) dying day
Not me not me
Mereb
Not me not me
Not me not me
This can never beRadames
Oh, not me
