If I Don't Have You

(Album: Waking And Dreaming - 1976)

Every day I spend with you goes by so fast,
it seems like an hour.
You can make my life complete, or tear it apart.
You've got the power.
But I can think of a thousand things
I hope we get to do.
But how can I make it through my life
if I don't have you?

Tears and laughter, rain and sun,
make a rainbow, so they say.
A tree can grow right through a rock
looking for air, or the light of day.
The wind can blow the clouds away,
and leave a sky of blue.
But how can I make it through my life
if I don't have you?

You're so deep inside me.
You're a part of my core.
And I'm not sure where I leave off,
and you begin any more.
But I like this intertwining,
as if we were two vines.
Mornings full of glory,
Evenings sweet as wine.

The wind can blow the clouds away,
and leave a sky of blue.
But how can I make it through my life
if I don't have you,
if I don't have you,
if I don't have you?
