Текст песни Chris Connor — Why Can’t I

Feeling the way I do,
I'd like to say, "I do!"
Heaving a heavenly sigh.
Everybody has someone;
Why can't I?
Creeping to bed alone,
Resting my head alone,
Only my pillow nearby.
Everybody has someone;
Why can't I?

I feel forsaken
On nights like this.
Can't I awaken
To someone's kiss?
Only my book in bed
Knows how I look in bed.
Nobody hears when I cry.
Everybody has someone;
Why can't I?

If love brings merriment
I must experiment
Only my book in bed
Knows how I look in bed.
Nobody hears when I cry.
Everybody has someone;
Why can't I?
