Think of the flowers without any rain
And picture the songbirds without their refrain
Think of a lifetime of living in vain
That’s me without you
Picture the woodland without any tree
And think of the blind man who’s longing to see
Picture a baby with no mother’s knee
That’s me without you
Love was splendid
While our two hearts were blended
Soon it ended
Now look at me I’m a ship that’s lost at sea
Think of a miser without any gold
And picture a black sheep without any fold
Now I am nothing, my story is told
That’s me without you
