Pessimistic Songtext
von Eugenio Finardi

Everybody sleeps at night
Why can′t I?
Everybody makes love at night
Why don't I?
All other people work all day
But like a child I do is play
Everybody sleeps at night
Why can′t I?

Everybody's got somebody
Somebody they can talk to
But I haven't anybody
And I would really need someone like you

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?


Why am I so lonely?
God only knows
Maybe I′m just too pessimistic
And maybe it shows

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?

Everybody sleeps at night
Why can′t I?
I lie staring at the ceiling
So empty I can't even cry
I feel like a motherless child
That ain′t got a father too
I just sit there staring at nothing
Dreaming 'bout someone like you

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?


I see people riding in cars
Going to the movies, drinking in bars
Everybody′s having a good time
Why don't I?

Why am I so lonely?
God only knows
Maybe I′m just too pessimistic
And maybe it shows

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?

I always hear these voices ringing
Talking in my head
I spend endless sleepless nights
Just shifting in my bed

Why am I so lonely?
God only knows
Maybe I'm just too pessimistic
And maybe it shows

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
I say: "Baby, where are you?"
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Baby, where are you?
