What Now My Love

Eddy Arnold · Romantic World [RCA Victor] [1968]

(Carl Sigman - Pierre Delanoe - Gilbert Becaud)



What now my love, now that you left me

How can I live through another day

Watching my dreams turn into ashes

And my hopes into bits of clay.



Once I could see once I could feel

Now I am numb, I've become unreal

I walk the night but without a goal

Stripped of my heart, my soul.



What now my love, now that it's over

I feel the world closing in on me

Here come the stars tumbling around me

And there's the sky where the sea should be.



What now my love, now that you're gone

I'd be a fool to go on and on

No one would care, no one would cry

If I should live or die.



What now my love, now there is nothing

Only my last goodbye...
