lyrics

Basking in the setting sun
Looking back on all I haven’t done
It seems I’ve lost my appetite
For the contest, for the fight
All my hopes of grand endeavour
Are, I fear, now gone forever
Ambition I’ve held before
Slipped out when you swept through that door

What would I do
If I didn’t have you

I was brought up to believe
There was nothing I could not achieve
But what on earth could I invent
To match what has been heaven sent
Would I catch your eye by chasing fame?
A stranger’s love is not the same
I could pour my heart across the land
And who but you would understand?

What would I do
If I didn’t have you

Don’t plan to measure the impression I made
By the numbers that line my homecoming parade
The perils of fame all too often have shown
If you want to be well, better not be well known
The history books tell me how lonesome I’d be
To have a whole chapter devoted to me

Why would I want my likeness carved in stone?
Standing proud forever all alone

What would I do
If I didn’t have you

The road is hard, you travel far
When you wish upon a distant star
It takes all my ingenuity
To be what you deserve of me
At home with you I’ll be content
To make you smile and make my rent
Bathed in comfort, filled with pride
Cos I’ve got my lady right by my side

What would I do
If I didn’t have you
