Reaching for Someone (And Not Finding Anyone There)

Why is it I get no pleasure?

Why is it I must complain?

Someone to love and to treasure

Might rid 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

Is there a June honeymoon?

Is there a tune lovers croon?

Is there a day coming soon

When I'll find someone somewhere?

And who wouldn't worry?

Who wouldn't swear?

Heaven is a Hades when you're up in the air

Reaching for someone

And not finding anyone there

Is there a June honeymoon?

Is there a tune lovers 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
