If It Wasn'T For You

If it wasn’t for your eyes I would have nothing to gaze upon, If it wasn’t for your lips I would have nothing to place mine on. If it wasn’t for your hair I would have nothing to stroke, Because of your understandings I have reasons to cope. If it wasn’t for your hands I would have nothing to reach out to, If it wasn’t for your smile Each of my days would be blue. If it wasn’t for your arms I would know no caress, Not the heat from another While touching chest to chest. If it wasn’t for you What would I do, I truly haven't the slightest clue.
