Oscar hammerstein ii / jerome kern
Why was i born
Why am i livin’
What do i get
What am i givin’
Why do i want for things
I dare not hope for
What can i hope for
I wish i knew
Why do i try
To draw you near me
Why do i cry
You never hear me
I’m a poor fool
But what can i do
Oh baby why was i born
To love you
