"What Did I Have That I Don't Have?"
(originally by Barbara Harris)
What did I have that I don't have?
What did she like that I lost track of?
What did I do that I don't do
The way I did before?
What isn't there that once was there?
What have I got a great big lack of?
Something in me then she could see then
Beckons to her no more
I'm just a victim of time
Obsolete in my prime
Out of date and outclassed
By my past
What did she love that there's none of?
What did I lose the sweet warm knack of?
Couldn't I be the late, great me if I knew how?
Oh, what did I have I don't have?
What did I have I don't have?
What did I have I don't have now?
Lord, what did she see that's gone in me?
What did I use that now I'm shy of?
Why is the sequel never equal?
Why is there no encore?
Where can I go to repair
All the wear and the tear
'Til I'm once again the
Previous me?
What did she like that I'm not like?
What was that charm that I've run dry of?
What would I give if my old know-how still knew how!
What did I have I don't have?
What did I have that I don't have?
What did I have that I don't have now?
What did I have that I've lost?

Upon my brow
Your lips that are cool
And sweet
Such tenderness lies
In their soft caress
