This bitter earth
What fruit it bears
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
This bitter earth
Well, can be so cold
On this day, you′re young
Too soon, you're old
But while a voice
Within me cries
Someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
May not be so bitter after all
This bitter earth
Can be so cold
Today, you′re young
Too soon, too old
I said this bitter earth
Can be so cold
Today, you're young, so young
Before you know it, you're growing old
But while a voice
Within me cries
Someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
May not be so bitter, so bitter after all
This bitter earth
