I Won't Last A Day Without You
The Carpenters 
Words and Music by Paul Williams and Roger Nichols
(peak Billboard position # 11 in 1974)

Day after day I must face the world of strangers where I don't belong
I'm not that strong
It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to who will always care
You're always there


CHORUS
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you


So many times when the city seems to be without a friendly face, a lonely place
It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you and you'll always smile
It's all worthwhile

CHORUS


Touch me and I end up singin'
Troubles seem to up and disappear
You touch me with the love you're bringin'
I can't really lose when you're near, when you're near

If all my friends have forgotten half their promises, they're not unkind
Just hard to find
One look at you and I know that I could learn to live without the rest
I've found the best

CHORUS

CHORUS

(won't last a day without you, without you)
