Living Without You
Copyright 2003 John Torres Music
Written in 1998

v1
A tear wells in an angel’s eye
And I can’t force myself to cry.
If I might find a cure for pride ,
I might never have to leave your side.

But every word I speak is to the walls.
Every tower I build just seems to fall.
The moment that I overlook your name,
I realize that my goals are just a game.

And without you here I’m not complete.
I’m like a passing shadow on the street.
You are the very essence of my soul.
These are the hardest days of growing old.

ch
And living here without you
Is like a million deaths I’ve already died,
A lost control I had inside.
Living here without you
Would take away my faith in life,
And cut my spirit like a knife.

v2
The world turns for the love of mystery,
And it’s a wonder why you turned to me.
We can doubt or we could just believe.
But in the end the truth does not deceive.

This angel cries with heaven’s pain.
And like lightning, I can see the rain.
Who knows what the sun would have to say
If he knew that my angel stole the day.

We float right past the city lights.
We rule the darkness of the night.
Until the day this life is through
We’ve got ourselves a job to do.

ch2
And living here without you
Would break the rules of space and time.
We’d float right past the stars and shine.
And living here without you
Would break the world for all its lies,
For every kiss and for every cry.

b1
I feel this wind blowing over.
No longer a chill on my shoulder.
No one can change who we are.
So why am I trying, oh why am I trying at all?

ch3
And living here without you
Would break the rules of space and time,
We’d float right past the stars and shine.
And living here without you
Would break the world for all its lies,
For every kiss and for every cry.
