Carnal Question Lyrics - Gino Vannelli

If I came back just a cripple from the war 

Would you hold me close just like you did before? 

And what in the world would you do 

If I could not make love to you? 

The question is not whether the freedom we've got 

Is worth the consequence of war 

The question is just, can I hold you at dusk 

Without you asking me for more? 

A post-war eunuch 

A lover that is lame 

Some famous hero, and one shares his name 

But where in the world would I go? 

You're all that I love and all I know 

The question is plain 

Could our love still remain 

Without its carnal ecstasy? 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

And who in the world would I be 

If I lose all of you and half of me? 

Oh
