Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once I was a selfish fool
Who never understood
Never looked inside myself
Though on the outside, I looked good
Then we met and you made me
The man I am today
Tracy, I'm in love with you
No matter what you weigh
[Chorus]
'Cause without love
Life is like the seasons with no summer
Without love
Life is rock 'n' roll without a drummer
Tracy, I'll be yours forever
'Cause I never wanna be
Without love
Tracy, never set me free
No
I ain't lyin'
Never set me free
Tracy
No, no, no
[Verse 2]
Livin' in the ghetto
Black is everywhere you go
Who'd've thought I'd love a girl
Whose skin was white as winter snow?
[Verse 3]
In my ivory tower
Life was just a hostess snack
But now I've tasted chocolate
And I'm never goin' back
[Chorus]
'Cause without love
Life is like a beat that you can't follow
Without love
Life is Doris Day at the Apollo
Darling, I'll be yours forever
'Cause I never wanna be
Without love
So, darlin', never set me free, no
I'm yours forever
Never set me free
No, no, no
[Bridge]
If I'm left without my baby doll
I don't know what I'll do
Link, I've got to break out so that
I can get my hands on you
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, If girl, if I can't touch you
Then I'm gonna lose control
Seaweed, you're my black white knight
I've found my blue-eyed soul
Sweet freedom is our goal
Trace, I wanna kiss ya
Let me out at the next toll
[Chorus]
Without love
Life is like a prom that won't invite us
Without love
It's like getting my big break and laryngitis
Without love
Life's a 45 when you can't buy it
Without love
Life is like my mother on a diet
Like a week that's only Mondays
Only ice cream, never sundaes
Like a circle with no center
Like a door marked "Do not enter"
Darlin', I'll be yours forever
'Cause I never wanna be
Without love
Yes
Now you've captured me
Without love
I surrender happily
Without love
Seaweed
Never set me free
No, no, no
I ain't lyin'
Never set me free
No, no, no
No, I don't wanna live
Without love, love
Darlin', you have best believe me
Never leave me without love
