(I Want) Something to Live For Songtext

I have almost every thing a human could desire
Cars and houses, bear-skin 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 care for

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

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
