And if my life
My life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
Tell me, what good am I?
My life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
Tell me, what good am I?
Heaven, heaven, heaven only knows
Ooh, this, this bitter earth
Well, I found out it can be, be so, be so cold
Today, oh yeah
And before you know it
Too soon, you’ve grown old
But while a voice within me cries
Someone, someone may answer my call
Well, I found out it can be, be so, be so cold
Today, oh yeah
And before you know it
Too soon, you’ve grown old
But while a voice within me cries
Someone, someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
This bitter, bitter earth
May not, may not be so bitter after all
while a voice
While this voice within me cries
Someone, someone may answer my call
This bitter, bitter earth
May not, may not be so bitter after all
while a voice
While this voice within me cries
Someone, someone may answer my call
And this, this bitter
This real cold earth
Hmm-hmm
May not
Be so bitter after all, hmm-hmm
This real cold earth
Hmm-hmm
May not
Be so bitter after all, hmm-hmm
