Paul Robeson
I Don’t Know What’s Wrong
Used to take my fun where I found it
I'd play a little, laugh a lot and sing
Now (?) changes no getting round it
That kind of life just don't mean a thing
I don't know what's wrong
Why I'm feeling gloomy
Since you came along
Something's happened to me
Something that I can't explain
Just an ache in my heart
I used to think it fun
Kissing girls and flirting
Now there's only one
Something's wrong at certain
Longing of a brand new kind
Just an ache in my heart
My health is all right
I sleep well at night
Through thunder or fire alarms
So I think I know
Why my heart is low
It's tired of my empty arms
Find it hard to smile
Nothing seems to cheer me
Lonely all the while
If you're nowhere near me
You're the only cure I'll find
For this ache in my heart
I don't know what's wrong
Why I'm feeling gloomy
Since you came along
Something's happened to me
Something that I can't explain
Just an ache in my heart
I used to think it fun
Kissing girls and flirting
Now there's only one
Something's wrong at certain
Longing of a brand new kind
Just an ache in my heart
My health is all right
I sleep well at night
Through thunder or fire alarms
So I think I know
Why my heart is low
It's tired of my empty arms
Find it hard to smile
Nothing seems to cheer me
Lonely all the while
If you're nowhere near me
You're the only cure I'll find
For this ache in my heart
