Why Was I Born? ((Alternate Take))
From the top, right back
Why was I born?
Why am I living?
What do I get?
What am I giving?
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 keep 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 do I try to keep you near me?
Why do I cry?
I know 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 living?
What do I get?
What am I giving?
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 keep 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 do I try to keep you near me?
Why do I cry?
I know you never hear me
I'm a poor fool, but what can I do
Why was I born to love you?
