I won’t last a day
without you
By the carpenters

John has no memory of his past.
He is a stranger to the world...to himself...
But he has his best friend with him – Marlena.

Day after day
I must face a world of strangers
Where I don’t belong
And that is wrong
It’s nice to know
That there is someone I can turn to
Who will always care
You're always there

When there is no getting over that rainbow
when the 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 is I need you
And you’ll always smile
It’s all worth while

When there is no getting over that rainbow
when the 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
Trouble seem to up and disappear
You touch me with the love you are bringing
I can’t really lose
When you are near

If all the friends have forgotten
Half the promises
They are not un-kind
Just hard to find
One look at you
And I know that I can learn to live
Without the risk
I have found the best

When there is no getting over that rainbow
when the 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
