What Am I Here For? Lyrics - Johnny Mathis

What am I here for living in misery 

Now that you've gone from my heart 

That was my fear for you were my future 

There was no reason to part 

Still I hope you'll change your mind 

And that somehow you will find 

You were meant to be my only 

I'll be lost if I'm alone 

I know you remember all that you told me 

Times when you'd hold me so tight 

How could you grieve me, how could you leave me 

Knowing your love is my light 

In your heart there should be thoughts 

That you'll return to me 

I will be happy, patiently waiting 

Knowing then just why I am here 

What am I here for living in misery 

Now that you've gone from my heart 

That was my fear for you were my future 

There was no reason to part 

Still I hope you'll change your mind 

And that somehow you will find 

You were meant to be my only 

I'll be lost if I'm alone 

I know you remember all that you told me 

Times when you'd hold me so tight 

How could you grieve me, how could you leave me 

Knowing your love is my light 

In your heart there should be thoughts 

Of your return to me 

I will be happy patiently waiting 

Knowing then just why I am here
