I Won't Last A Day Without You
- Recorded by: The Carpenters

Day after day I must face a 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.
When there's no getting 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.
When there's no getting 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.
Touch me and I end up singing.
Troubles seem to up and disappear.
You touch me with the love you're bringing.
I can't really lose when you're near.
(When you're near my love)
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 found the best.
When there's no getting 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.
When there's no getting 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.
(Won't last a day without you, without you...)
