Dinah Washington - This Bitter Earth

This bitter earthWell, what a fruit it bearsWhat good is loveMm, mm, that no one shares?And if my life is like the dustOoh, that hides the glow of a roseWhat good am I?Heaven only knowsLord, this bitter earthYes, can be so coldToday, you're youngToo soon, you're oldBut while a voice within me criesI'm sure someone may answer my callAnd this bitter earthOoh, may not, oh, be so bitter after all
