VERSE

I have almost ev'rything
A human could desire,
Cars and houses, bearskin 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 could care for.

REFRAIN

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.
