Lyrics

I have almost ev'ry thing a human could desire, Cars and houses, bear-skin rugs to lie before my fire But there's something missing, Something isn't there, It seems I'm never kissing the one whom I care for. I want Something To Live For Someone to make my life an adventurous dream Oh, what wouldn't I give for Someone who'd take my life And make it seem gay as they say it ought to be. Why can't I have love like that brought to me? My eye is watching the noon crowds Searching the promenades seeking a clue To the one who will someday be my Something To Live For. I want Something To Live For Someone to make my life an adventurous dream Oh, what wouln't I give for Someone who'd take my life And make it seem gay as they say it ought to be. Why can't I have love like that brought to me? My eye is watching the noon crowds Searching the promenades seeking a clue To the one who will someday be my Something To Live For.
