DEBORAH COX LYRICS - This Bitter Earth

"This Bitter Earth"



This bitter earth

Well, what fruit it bears

What good is love

That no one shares



And if my life is like the dust

Mmm, that hides the glow of a rose

What good am I

Heaven only knows



Lord, this bitter earth

Yes, can be so cold

Today you're young

Too soon you're old



But while a voice within me cries

I know heaven will answer my call

And this bitter earth

Ooh, may not be so bitter after all



But while a voice within me cries

I know heaven will answer my call

And this bitter earth

Ooh, it may not be so bitter after all, ooh
