Aretha Franklin - Why Was I Born? lyrics
[Aretha Franklin - Why Was I Born? lyrics]
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?
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?
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?
