the marvelettes - reachin' for something i can't have lyrics
(got me reachin’, reachin’, you got me reachin’, reachin’)
reachin’ for somethin’ i can’t have, though it may cause me pain
needing his love so much till only hurt remains
standing high on society hill, a voice calls out to me
from a boy i love & need so much, he says he’s not for me
’cause i live up & he lives down, on the poor side of town
but still i’m reachin’, reachin’; i can’t help reachin’, reachin’
’cause he tells me he has nothin’ & his place is not with me
his pride keeps him away, but still i love him more each day
so i’ll keep…
reachin’ for somethin’ i can’t have, though it may cause me pain
needing his love so much till only hurt remains
he says he cannot give me all the things a rich man can
“stay on your hill & don’t look down; forget our love began”
& even though he loves me so, he must let me go
but still i’m reachin’, reachin’; i can’t help reachin’, reachin’
for a boy who cannot give me nothin’ but his love
but he’s everything i need & i’ve got to make him see
so i’ll keep…
reachin’ for somethin’ i can’t have, though it may cause me pain
needing his love so much till only hurt remains
i need him & i want him & i don’t care if he has nothing
just to have him close to me, that’s all i ever need
