Billy Joel - Roberta lyrics

Roberta, you say you know me,

But I see only what you're paid to show me.

Oh, I wish you had the time,

Oh, I wish you had the time.

Oh, Roberta, I understand you,

I know you need to move in other circles too;

It's tough for me, It's tough for you.

Roberta, how I've adored you,

I'd ask you over but I can't afford you.

Oh, I wish you'd take the time,

Oh, I wish you'd take the time.

Oh, Roberta, the night goes slowly,

I know you're workin' but you must get lonely too;

It's tough for me, It's tough for you.

And I'm in a bad way and wanna make love to you, Oo, oo.

Oh, I wish you had the time,

Oh, I wish you had the time.

Roberta, I really need you,

But I suppose that my small change won't see you through;

It's tough for me, It's tough for you
