    We drank a toast to now
    We tried to reach beyond the emptiness
    But neither one knew how

    I saw the lamp light from your window, didn't think you were home, sitting there, all alone.
    So I came up to your room to ask you why.
    Why did you hurt me so, why did you have to go, away?

    Asked a girl what she wanted to be
    She said, "baby, can't you see
    I want to be famous, a star on the screen

    actually i think we both might be right. this site gives the lyrics from an earlier recording and they match yours. The Burl Ives recording uses the lyrics i posted. the dangers of posting lyrics from old folk where the lyrics are not fixed in stone.

    Yeah loads of different people have recorded it and some of them change the lyrics alright. I love the scene in Stir Crazy when Gene Wilders cellmate sings it too. One of my favourite films and a gorgeous song.
