作詞
Harry Nilsson、George Tipton
Life isn't easy when two are divided and one has decided
to bring down the curtain and one thing's for certain,
there's nothing to keep them together.
How does it happen that two can be tender
and one be the lender of love and emotion
that covered the ocean of sadness that kept them together?
Love when it started was easy to measure:
each day was a pleasure, each night an adventure,
each morning was something that had to be shared together.
Love when it's growing is full of surprises
as temperature rises from higher to higher,
then turns into fire that has to be shared together.
Then came the sadness which follows the laughter
and shortly thereafter the dream had exploded,
a promise was broken, now few words are spoken together.
Life isn't easy when two are divided and one has decided
to bring down the curtain and one thing's for certain,
there's nothing to keep them together.
