英國實力歌姬［佩圖拉．克拉克］──流行抒情曲──［I Couldnt Live Without Your Love／沒有你的愛，我活不下去］
Youre the only one that I rely on
A shoulder there for me to cry on
And the hours alone that Im without you
All I ever do is think about you
No one knows that youre so understanding
Even though my love is so demanding
Every time you look at me
Then youll know well both agree
That no other love could be
I couldnt live without your love
Now, I know youre really mine
I gotta have you all the time
Didnt like you much when I first met you
But somehow, I couldnt quite forget you
Said you didnt want a friend or lover
That your life was happy with another
But as time went by, my love grew stronger
Knew that I just couldnt wait any longer
For I couldnt let you go
And I had to tell you so
That I loved you, then youd know
I couldnt live without your love
Now, I know youre really mine
I gotta have you all the time
Now, the tears are gone and Im not cryin
When you say you love me, youre not lyin
So, when people want to stare
I know I dont really care
Just as long as you are there
I couldnt live without your love
Now, I know youre really mine
I gotta have you all the time
I couldnt live without your love
Now, I know youre really mine
I gotta have you all the time
