If Not For You

If not for you I would know nothing of This balcony, this panorama love. The world would seem a dreary thing Four walls without a window A room without a view If not for you. Like sunlight pouring through the sorry rain You made me see the colors I contain. You held me to the light of love As if I were a diamond. I would be merely blue If not for you. The moon would rise, the stars would shine Just like they always do But not for me, not for me If not for you.
