Lyrics

Tell me how long must I keep
Wanting things
Needing things, when I have so much
There are many men who have much less than me
Day by day they make their way
And they find more in life than I can see
Tell me
When will I learn to resist
Wanting things
Touching things that say do, do not touch
People that I meet seem to think I am strong
They don't see inside of me
So they don't know I'm weak and often wrong
Tell me
Why must I keep wanting things
Needing things that just can't be mine
Written by: Burt Bacharach, Hal David
