Eartha Kitt - Why Can't I? Lyrics

Artist: Eartha Kitt

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Jazz

  • Songwriters: Lorenz Hart, Richard Rodgers

Feeling the way I do
I'd like to say, 'I do'
Heaving a heavenly sigh
Everybody has a someone
Why can't I?

Creeping to bed alone
Resting my head alone
Only my pillow nearby
Some have a reason for dreaming
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?

Feeling the way I do
I'd like to say, 'I do'
Nature is hard to deny
Everybody has a someone
Why can't I?

Feeling the way I do
I'd like to say, 'I do'
Nature is hard to deny
Everybody has a someone
Why can't I?

If love brings merriment
I must experiment
With some electrical guy
Even old maids find a burglar
Why can't I?

Should girls be good girls?
I think they should
I need a good man
To make me be good

Two feet are ever cold
Four feet are never cold
I only mean to imply
Everybody has someone
Why can't I?

Everybody needs someone
Why can't I?
