Without Your Love
[Intro]
Love's so convincing when it begins
Righteous and real, but it soon deserts you
Before you know it you've reached the end
Honestly, I never meant to hurt you
[Verse 1]
The moment that I found you
I built my world around you
You changed your name and you became my home
And I called you my own
Our happiness seemed haunted
But you were all I wanted
No clouds could fade the love we made sublime
We were stronger than time
[Pre-Chorus]
Time won in the end
Our love was too precious to pretend
Somehow I lost you
[Chorus]
Without your love, will I ever be the same?
Will the spring arrive?
Will the rainbows chase the rain?
Without your love
Without your love
Without your love
[Verse 2]
We sailed through life together
Survived the raging weather
And then one day you came to say "goodbye"
And I never knew why
I prayed my heart could hide you
From all the storms inside you
The compass forced us way off-course somehow
And I never knew how
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind won in the end
It wanted to break us, not to bend
And now I've lost you
[Chorus]
Without your love, will I ever be the same?
Will the spring arrive?
Will the rainbows chase the rain?
Without your love
Without your love
Without your love
Without your love
[Outro]
Love's so convincing when it begins
Righteous and real, but it soon deserts you
Before you know it you've reached the end
Honestly, I never meant to hurt you
