Lyrics
this bitter earth
what fruit it bears
this bitter earth
and if my life is like the dust
that hides the glow of a rose
what good am I
heaven only knows
Lord,this bitter earth
can it be so cold
today you're young
too soon you're old
but while a voice
within me cries
I sure someone may answer my call
and this bitter earth
may not be so bitter after all
. . .
this bitter earth
Lord,this bitter earth
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
what fruit it bears
this bitter earth
and if my life is like the dust
that hides the glow of a rose
what good am I
heaven only knows
Lord,this bitter earth
can it be so cold
today you're young
too soon you're old
but while a voice
within me cries
I sure someone may answer my call
and this bitter earth
may not be so bitter after all
. . .
this bitter earth
Lord,this bitter earth
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
