What is life without love
What is love without you
Why dream if they never come true
Why try to go on
When your only hopes are gone
Darlin', what is life without love?

Somehow I can't forget
The first day that we met
You were something from heaven above
Now I'm asking you sweetheart
And it's straight from my heart
Darlin', what is life without love?

All alone how I yearn
That someday you'll return
And be true as the stars up above
If you'll only say you'll try
Then I'll be satisfied
Darlin', what is life without love?

What is life without love
What is love without you
Why dream if they never come true
Why try to go on
When your only hopes are gone
Darlin', what is life without love?
