Billy Joel Lyrics for Song: Roberta
 Lyrics for Album: Streetlife Serenade [1974]
 
 
 
 3147>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, ah, it's tough for you
 
 
 
 And I'm in a bad way and wanna make love to you, ooh, ooh
 
 Oh, I wish you had the time
 
 Oh, I wish you had the time
 
 
 
 Oh, Roberta, I really need you
 
 But I suppose that my small change won't see you through;
 
 It's tough for me, ah, it's tough for you
 
 3147>
