This Bitter Earth

This bitter earth, what fruit it bears What good is love that no one shares And if my life is like the dust that hides the glow of a rose What good am I heaven only knows This bitter earth, it can be so cold Today you're young, too soon you're old But while the voice within me cries I'm sure someone may answer my call This bitter earth may not be so bitter after all This bitter earth can be so cold Today you're young, too soon, too soon you're old But while the voice within me cries I'm sure someone will answer my call And this bitter earth may not be so bitter after all
