Why Was I Born 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 cry? You never hear me
I'm a poor fool, but what can I do?
Why was I born to love you?

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
