Town Without Pity Lyrics - Singles - Gene Pitney

When you're young and so in love as we 

And bewildered by the world we see 

Why do people hurt us so 

Only those in love would know 

What a town without pity can do 

If we stop to gaze upon a star 

People talk about how bad we are 

Ours is not an easy age 

We're like tigers in a cage 

What a town without pity can do 

The young have problems, many problems 

We need an understanding heart 

Why don't they help us, try and help us 

Before this clay and granite planet falls apart 

Take these eager lips and hold me fast 

I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last 

How can we keep love alive 

How can anything survive 

When these little minds tear you in two 

What a town without pity can do 

How can we keep love alive 

How can anything survive 

When these little minds tear you in two 

What a town without pity can do 

No, it isn't very pretty what a town without pity
