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 walk 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?
|
Oh, wanting things
|
That just can't be mine?
|
