歌曲歌詞
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 and need so much
He says he's not for 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
