Mary Hopkin
With You or Without You
With you or without you I'm tired of wanderin'
Tired of the echoes that I find
I've been thinkin' all the while, a lost and lonely child
I need your smile to see beyond my mind
And I need you for a pillow when it's dark outside
And I need you for a place to put my head
And I feel like I've been workin' hard standin' by my door
When I open it up the rain comes in instead
I can't love you like some holy man searchin' for his cross
I can't shrine you like an angel made of wood
I can't find you or confine you to the patterns that I weave
I would not tell your fortune if I could
Oh, my worship it is wordless like some growin' tree
And like time it leaves no writin' on the wall
Oh, with you I would answer you by stayin' by your side
Without you I can't answer you at all
Oh, my worship it is wordless like some growin' tree
And like time it leaves no writin' on the wall
Oh, with you I would answer you by stayin' by your side
Without you I can't answer you at all
