This bitter earth Well, what a fruit it bears What good is love That no one shares And if my life is like the dust Ooh, 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're young Too soon you're old But while a voice within me cries I'm sure someone may answer my call And this bitter earth Ooh, may not, oh, be so bitter after all
