Somebody Else Is Taking My Place Lyrics

Artist: Benny Goodman (Buy Benny Goodman CDs)
Album: Somebody Else Is Taking My Place

SOMEBODY ELSE IS TAKING MY PLACE
Benny Goodman
- words and muslc by Dick Howard, Bob Ellsworth and Russ Morgan

Somebody else is taking my place
Somebody else now shares your embrace
While I am trying
To keep from crying
You go around with a smile on your face
Little you care for vows that you made
Little you care how much I have paid
My heart is aching
My heart is breaking
For somebody's taking my place

A very classy song. A keen reminder of words that have meaning. A great great song for the heart and soul.
It is a reminder of what the music generation started out to be/ compared to what the music has become today. To much rock & roll, hip-hop etc.
We need more of the old classic songs brought back into the world today.
I can remember this song when I was a little girl. I am now 66. My father used to sing this song at gatherings way back when. I miss those days.

I remember when my youngest brother was born April 11 1943, I was 3years
10 months old, my sisters sang this song to me. From that moment I was no longer "The baby"
