Текст The Marvelettes – Reachin’ For Something I Can’t Have
Текст:
(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
‘Cause I live up and 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’ and 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 and don’t look down, forget our love began»
And 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 and 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 and I want him and I don’t care if he has nothing
Just to have him close to me, that’s all I ever need
