I awakened, whoa this morning,

And I was filled with despair

All my dreams, turned to ashes and gall,

And as I looked back on my life

It was barren and bare



And without love I have nothing,

I have nothing at all



Once I had, whoa a sweetheart

Who loved only me

There was nothing, that she would not give,

But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see

That a heart without love cannot live



Whoa, without love I have nothing,

Whoa, without love, friends I have nothing, at all

Ohhh, I have conquered, yeah the world

Oh-hooo, tell me what did I have?

Without love, ohh, I have nothing now, at all
