I'd be lost without you honey;
And I need to tell you why,
You are my one and only love,
The star that lights my sky.

I'd feel just like the April rain;
Except there would be no showers,
Or maybe like the honeybee,
With no nectar for my flowers.

I'd be just like a windmill;
with no breezes left to blow,
Or just like the prodigal son,
Who has no place to go.

I'd feel just like the sparrow;
Who had a broken wing,
Or a multi colored robin,
Whose forgotten how to sing.

I would be the clear blue sky;
Without a hint of blue,
or the lovely deep red roses,
Unkissed by morning dew.

So honey, if you've wondered how I'd feel;
Without you by my side,
Why I'd feel just like the whippoorwill,
Who had lost his will to fly.
