Lyrics for This Bitter Earth

This bitter earth Well, what a fruit it bears What good is love Mm, mm, that no one shares? And if my life is like the dust Ooh, that hides the glow of a rose What good am I? Heaven only knows Lord, this bitter earth Yes, can be so cold Today, you're young Too soon, you're old But while a voice within me cries I'm sure someone may answer my call And this bitter earth Ooh, may not, oh, be so bitter after all
