1
I have almost every thing a human could desire
2
Cars and houses, bear-skin rugs to lie before my fire
3
But there's something missing; something isn't there
4
It seems I'm never kissing the one whom I care for
5
[Chorus]
6
I want something to live for
7
Someone to make my life an adventurous dream
8
Oh, what wouldn't I give for
9

10
Gay as they say it ought to be

13
Searching the promenades, seeking a clue
14
To the one who will someday be my
15
Something to live for
16
[Chorus]
17
My eye is watching the noon crowds
18
Searching the promenades, seeking a clue
19
To the one who will someday be my
20
Something to live for
