This Bitter Earth Lyrics
This bitter earthWell, what a fruit it bears
What good is love
Mmh, that no one shares
And if my life is like the dust
Ooh, that hides the glow of a rose
What good am I
Heaven only knows
Oh, this bitter earth
Yes, can it be so cold
Today you're young
Too soon you're old
But while a voice
Within me cries
I'm sure someone
May answer my call
And this bitter earth, ooh
May not, oh be so bitter after all
