Lyrics A Man Without Love:
Verse 1
Living a life, living a lie Acting a part, with a tear in my eye Smiling at strangers, passing me by Living with shadows, with a tearful goodbye
Chorus
A man without love is a man without soul And he’s nothing, nothing, nothing at all Just a wanderer searching for his goal A man without love is lost in the fall
Verse 2
I can remember when we walked together Sharing a love I thought would last forever Don’t light to show the way So we can find waiting inside her eyes This was my tomorrow, then something changed Her mind her kisses told me I had no love to arrange
Chorus
A man without love is a man without soul And he’s nothing, nothing, nothing at all Just a wanderer searching for his goal A man without love is lost in the fall
Bridge
There are couples everywhere But there only is a man without love Every day I start out then I cry my heart out Lonely as a man without love every day Every day away
Chorus
A man without love is a man without soul And he’s nothing, nothing, nothing at all Just a wanderer searching for his goal A man without love is lost in the fall
Outro
Oh, to find my love, to find my way Back to the light of a brand new day A man without love needs a friend like you Oh, please help me find a love that’s true
