Without Love
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being.
His heart withers if it does not answer another heart.
His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts
and finds no other inspiration.
~ Pearl S. Buck
To live for today
And to love for tomorrow
Is the wisdom of a fool
Because tomorrow is promised to no one
You see love is that wonderful thing that
The whole wide world needs plenty of
And if you think for one minute
You can live without it
And your only fooling yourself
Listen please
I'd like to tell you something
That happened to me just other day
I awakened this morning, I was filled with despair
All my dreams turned to ashes now there gone
As I looked at my life it was barren and so bare
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
Without love I've had nothing
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
I have conquered the world
But one thing did I have
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
I once had a sweetheart who loved only me
There was nothing, that she would not give, oh no
But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see
That a heart without love cannot live
Without love I've had nothing
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
I have conquered the world
But one thing did I have
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
Without love I've had nothing, nothing at all
