Janis Ian Without You
I miss you, jealous lover,
Won't you come on over
To my side of town?
I need you
Like the city needs
The sound of human voices.
I want you
Like the winter wants the springtime.
Lover, without you,
The world stands alone.
Without you,
The past lingers on.
Tomorrow becoming today,
Without you, it's all the same,
Without you.
Outside my window,
Gentle lover,
The birds are singing songs of love.
I need you.
They are calling for
The sound of laughing children.
I want you.
They are singing for your pleasure.
Lover, without you,
The world stands alone.
Without you,
The past lingers on.
Tomorrow becoming today,
Without you, it's all the same.
I see you.
A world without end.
Then I need you,
All over again.
Without you,
The sun doesn't shine.
Tomorrow is blind,
Without you
