This bitter Earth, well what fruit it bears
What good is love that no one shares?
And if my life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
What good am I?
Heaven only knows
Lord, this bitter Earth, yes can be so cold
Today you are young, too soon you are old
But while a voice within me cries
I'm sure someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
May not oh be so bitter after all
What good is love that no one shares?
And if my life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
What good am I?
Heaven only knows
Lord, this bitter Earth, yes can be so cold
Today you are young, too soon you are old
But while a voice within me cries
I'm sure someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
May not oh be so bitter after all
