Why Was I Born? - Red Garland, Paul Chambers, Art Taylor

Why was I born, why am I living?

What do I get, what am I giving?

Why do I want the things, 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 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?
