Lyrics

[00:14.82] This bitter earth
[00:21.94] Well, what fruit it bears
[00:30.57] What good is love
[00:38.06] Mmmm that no one shares
[00:47.31] And if my life is like the dust
[00:55.50] Oooh that hides the glow of a rose
[01:03.25] What good am I
[01:09.25] Heaven only knows
[01:21.26] Lord, this bitter earth
[01:29.26] Yes, can be so cold
[01:37.39] Today you're young
[01:44.95] Too soon, you're old
[01:50.51] But while a voice within me cries
[02:00.38] I'm sure someone may answer my call
[02:06.26] And this bitter earth
[02:08.66] Ooooo may not
[02:13.19] Oh be so bitter after all
