Aretha Franklin Without Love lyrics

All night long
One night, I could not sleep
For ringing in my ear
A melody began to sing

Oh, at first
The words I could not make out clear
The smog fields lifted away
And this is what I heard them say

It said, ‽Without love”
(Without love)
‽There's nothing you can do”
Yes, it did
It said, ‽Without love”
(Without love)
‽You're not even you”

All night long
He spoke to me
The words of wisdom rang
Beneath his sweet, soft melody

It said, ‽Don't you know”
(Don't you know)
‽That a rich man can be poor
‽If wealth is all he has, hey?”

Without love
(Without love)
There's nothing you can do
(Do, do, do, do, do)
Don't you know without love
You're not even you?
(Without love)

Can't you hear me talking to you?
(Can't you hear us talking to you?)
Without love, oh
The sorrow's even new, yes, it is
Without love
(Without love)

You're not even you

Hey, yeah
Without love
(Without love)
There's really so much you can do
Yes, it is
(Without love)

Without love
(Without love)
You're not even you
Everybody sing now

Without love
(Without love)
There's so much you can do
(Without love)
Yes, it is
(Without love)
Yes, it is

Without love
(Without love)
You're not even you
Sing it, sing it
One more time

Without love
(Without love)
There's so much you can do
(Without love)

(Without love)
Without love
Do you know you're not even you?
Hey, hey, hey
Without you
(Without love)
