Why Was I Born

Oscar Hammerstein - Jerome Kern

© Harms Music, ASCAP

Why was I born why am I living
What do I get what am I giving

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
Mhm why 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 ]
I'm a poor fool but what can I do
Why was I born why was I born
Why was I born to love you
