Johnny Mathis - What Am I Here For? lyrics

rate me

What am I here for living in misery<br />

Now that you've gone from my heart<br />

That was my fear for you were my future<br />

There was no reason to part<br />

<br />

Still I hope you'll change your mind<br />

And that somehow you will find<br />

You were meant to be my only<br />

I'll be lost if I'm alone<br />

<br />

I know you remember all that you told me<br />

Times when you'd hold me so tight<br />

How could you grieve me, how could you leave me<br />

Knowing your love is my light<br />

<br />

In your heart there should be thoughts<br />

That you'll return to me<br />

I will be happy, patiently waiting<br />

Knowing then just why I am here<br />

<br />

What am I here for living in misery<br />

Now that you've gone from my heart<br />

That was my fear for you were my future<br />

There was no reason to part<br />

<br />

Still I hope you'll change your mind<br />

And that somehow you will find<br />

You were meant to be my only<br />

I'll be lost if I'm alone<br />

<br />

I know you remember all that you told me<br />

Times when you'd hold me so tight<br />

How could you grieve me, how could you leave me<br />

Knowing your love is my light<br />

<br />

In your heart there should be thoughts<br />

Of your return to me<br />

I will be happy patiently waiting<br />

Knowing then just why I am here
