Why is it I get no pleasure?
Why is it I must complain?
Someone to love and to treasure
Might lift my heart of its pain
Still I go hoping in vain
I'm just a bubble of trouble and care
Very fond of petting, but I'm getting nowhere
Reaching for someone and not finding anyone there
No sweet romancer to answer my prayer
Always building castles that nobody will share
Reaching for someone and not finding anyone there
Now is there a June honeymoon,
Is there a June lover's croon,
Is there a day coming soon,
When I'll find someone somewhere?
Who wouldn't worry and who wouldn't swear
Heaven is a Hades when you're up in the air
Reaching for someone and not finding anyone there
