Lyrics Why Was I Born (Sweet Adeline) [1990 Remastered Version] - Dinah Washington




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?
