Lyrics

Happy together, you and I
We made our lives a song
Letting bad weather pass right by
The world just rolled along
But thing are diff’rent now that you have gone
All by myself I simply can’t go on

Chorus
What good are days without sunshine?
You made the skies above blue
Now that you’re gone days are dreary
What good am I without you?
What good are nights without love dreams?
You made my dreaming come true
Now that you’re gone nights are empty
What good am I without you?
If I can’t have you there with me
To share each joy and care
What good are birds that sing
The flowers in spring
Or what darn good is anything?
Your love could make me be something
A million things I could do
But all alone I’m just nothing
What good am I without you?
