Without You

Crystal Lewis · Beyond the Charade [1987]

[chorus]

Without you I don't know what I would do

Without you I don't know what I would do

Without you I don't know what I would do

Without you



I'm all alone no friends can come out and play

I need you to move me in your mystic way

I open up the book and I call out your name

Hoping that you'll hear me and you'll save me from my shame



[chorus]



When I'm all alone I let out my silent cries

But in the midst of a crowd all they hear are lies

I try to hide all my pain but deep down I know

I need your love inside me I can't go on alone



[chorus]
