Lyrics

What Would I Do

Verse 1

What would I do, if all my dreams came true. And I had all my hearts desire. Still I would be sad and empty, if you weren't there to fill it with your love. Without you, what would I do?

Chorus

What would I do if I had a mansion filled with gold. But there was no laughter, and the nights were so cold. What good is all the money in the world if you're alone. Without you what would I do.

Verse 2

What would I do if the sky were not blue. And the sun refused to shine. That's how I'd be, if you weren't with me. Like a flower dying slowly in the night. Without you, what would I do?

Repeat Chorus twice
