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 in a bad way and I wanna make love to you, oo, oo
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, it's tough for you
