Why Was I Born? lyrics
Song information
Artist: Frank Sinatra
Album: Portrait Of Sinatra-Columbia C
Lyrics
Why was I born, why am I livin'?
What do I get, what am I givin'?
Why do I want a thing I daren't hope for?
What can I hope for? I wish I knew
Why do I try to draw you near me?
Why do I do I cry? you never hear me
I'm a poor fool, but what can I do?
Why was I born to love you?
≪instrumental-first two lines of second verse>
I'm a poor fool, but what can I do?
Why was I born to love you?
Some other versions may include an intro:
Spending these lonesome evenings with nothing to do
But to live in dreams that I make up all by myself
Dreaming that you're beside me, I picture the prettiest stories
Only to wake up all by myself what is the good of me by myself?
