Analysis of Without You

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Without you
I am nothing
Without you
I am alone
Without you
What will I do
Without you
I will live on
Without you
I will start over
Without you
With another
Without you
Maybe I’ll find
Without you
Life is better
Without you
I will be free
Without you
I will still be
Without you
I am not whole

P.s.I would much rather write
     About being with you.
