Dinah Washington feat. Tristan Powell - Dinah '63

Why Was I Born (Sweet Adeline) - 1990 Remastered Version

Well, why was I born?
And why am I living?
What do I get?
Or what am I giving?

Why do I want for things
I dare not hope for?
What can I hope for?
I wish I knew

And why do I try
To draw you near me?
Why do I cry?
Hey, you never hear me

I'm just a fool
But what can I do? Please tell me baby
Why? Why was I born
To love you?

And why do I try
To draw you near me?
Why do I cry?
'Cause you never hear me

I'm a fool, but what can I do?
Baby, why was I born, that early morning?
Why was I born, that early morning?
Why was I born to love you?
