美國靈魂樂女王［艾瑞莎．富蘭克林］──靈魂／流行抒情曲──［Without Love／沒有愛］

1, 2, 3

What is romance?
Without the one you love
Well, its heartbreak and misery
Without the one you love
You fool yourself and say
"Ill forget"

And knowing all the time that its not so
Playing the lonely role of
Pagliacci
Crying all day and sad
And hurting and much more
Life can seem so cruel
Without that one you love

Youre like a dying rose of summer
Without the one you love
One telephone call
One life, one life, thats all
Could mean a world of difference

Just lovebirds you never
Youll never-ever, ever, ever know
But life can seem so lonely
Without the one you love

One, one telephone call
You know that chargell brighten me one line of change
All of this could mean a world of difference

Just lovebirds, youll never-ever-ever know
But life
Can seem so low, so lonely
Without the one you love
Mhmm, mhm, mhm
