If I Didn't Have Your Love Lyrics - Leonard Cohen

If the sun would lose its light 

And we lived an endless night 

And there was nothing left 

That you could feel 

That's how it would be 

My life would seem to me 

If I didn't have your love 

To make it real 

If the stars were all unpinned 

And a cold and bitter wind 

Swallowed up the world 

Without a trace 

Oh well that's where I would be 

What my life would seem to me 

If I couldn't lift the veil 

And see your face 

And if no leaves were on the tree 

And no water in the sea 

And the break of day 

Had nothing to reveal 

That's how broken I would be 

What my life would seem to me 

If I didn't have your love 

To make it real 

If the sun would lose its light 

And we lived an endless night 

And there was nothing left 

That you could feel 

If the sea were sand alone 

And the flowers made of stone 

And no one that you hurt 

Could ever heal 

Well that's how broken I would be 

What my life would seem to me 

If I didn't have your love 

To make it real
