Me without you
Is me without love
For life's without love
If you're not there
Dreams without you
Are dreams without hope
For what good's a dream
That we can't share?
Night without end
Is sleep without your arms
I creep into your arms
I sleep well in your arms
One needin' two
Is me needin' you
I'm lost without you and love
Dawn without sun
Is waking without you
Is aching without you
Can't make it without you
One needin' two
Is me needin' you
I'm lost without you and love
この曲はミュージカル(舞台)The Good Old Bad Old Days (1972) で使われました。

一緒に歌っているのは Petula Clark です。
Hay
Wouldn't it be nice to make a people tree
The likes of you
The likes of me
We can do it very easily
We barely even have to try
Let a little time go by
And pretty soon before we know it
(Soon before we know it)
Suddenly the two of us are one, two, three
And there we see, our people tree
Soon the score is up to four or more
As other little branches grow
(Other little branches grow)
That's the way it's meant to go
And there's no way I know to slow it
(There's no way to slow it)
(What a source of mutual satisfaction when we see the tree bare room)
Evidence beyond dispute of all our mutual attraction
Nothing is as lovely as a people tree
(The people tree)
I think that we
(I'd think that we)
Would all agree
(Would all agree)

このアルバム "Why?" は廃版(?) のようです。
There's no such thing as love
There's no such thing at all
There's no such thing as love
It's just a word that kids write on a wall
There's no such thing as love's old sweet song
It's just the same old rhyme that poets chime, and poets could be wrong
There's no girl just for me
To me they're all the same
They're just an hour's fun and then I run
To me it's just a game
There's no such thing as blue skies above
'Cause since you said goodbye there's no such thing as love
There's no girl just for me
To me they're all the same
They're just an hour's fun and then I run
To me it's just a game
There's no such thing as blue skies above
'Cause since you said goodbye
You left me high and dry
You left me here to cry
There's no such thing
There's no such thing
As love

Who can I turn to
When nobody needs me?
My heart wants to know
And so I must go
Where destiny leads me
With no star to guide me
And no one beside me
I'll go on my way
And after the day
The darkness will hide me
And maybe tomorrow
I'll find what I'm after
I'll throw off my sorrow
Beg, steal or borrow
My share of laughter
With you I could learn too
With you on a new day
But who can I turn to
If you turn away?
