One Never Knows, Does One?

Transcribed from vocals by Billie Holiday, recorded January 12, 1937.
From Billie Holiday and Her Orchestra 1933 - 1937; Chronological Classics 582.

One never knows, does one?
When love will come along,
Then so suddenly, life turns out to be
A song! Hmmm.

One never knows, does one?
The moment or the place,
Then right before your eyes, someone occupies
Your embrace!

Someday, look and you'll find,
Two hearts were blessed,
Someday, fate may be kind,
Pray for the future,
Hope for the best.

One never knows, does one?
That's just the way it goes.
All at once you hear, "Hold me, caress me," and then...
Love may come, but when one never knows.

Someday, look and you'll find,
Two hearts were blessed,
Someday, fate may be kind,
Pray for the future,
Hope for the best.

One never knows, does one?
That's just the way it goes.
All at once you hear, "Hold me, caress me," and then...
Love may come, but when one never knows.
Does one?
