I could hardly believe it when I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leaving someone's swept your heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true

So tell me all about it tell me 'bout the plans you're making
Then tell me one thing more before I go

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
How am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been living for is gone

I didn't come here for crying didn't come here to break down
It's just a dream of mine is coming to an end
And how can I blame you when I build my world around
The hope that one day we'd been so much more than friends

And I don't want to know the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
When even now it's more than I can take

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been living for is gone

And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
No...now that your dream has come true oh

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been living for is gone without you
After I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
