Wanting Things lyrics

Artist Burt Bacharach
Album(s) Make It Easy On Yourself

Lyrics

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 make their way
And they find more in life thank I can see
Tell me

When will I learn to resist
Wanting things
Touching things that say "do not touch."
Peo-ple 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!
*(Yes, wanting things
That just can't..
Be..
Mine...)
