Billie Holiday Why was i born? Lyrics

Oscar Hammerstein II / Jerome Kern

Why was I born?
Why am I livin'
What do I get?
What am i givin'
Why do I want things,
I dare not hope for.
What can I hope for?
I wish I knew
Why do I try?
To draw you near me
I'm a poor fool
But what can I do
Oh baby I was born
To love you!
