Lyrics

This bitter earth Well, what the fruit it bears Ooooh This bitter earth And if my life Is like the dust Oooh that hides The glow of a rose What good am I? Heaven only knows Lord, this bitter earth Yes can be so cold Today you're young Too soon, you're old But while a voice Within me cries I'm sure someone may answer my call And this bitter earth, oooh May not, oh, be so bitter after all This bitter earth Lord, this bitter earth What good is love Mmmm, that no one shares And if my life is like the dust Oooh that hides, the glow of a rose What good am I What good am I Heaven only knows
