Without Love (We're Just Wastin' Time) - Ray Wylie Hubbard

You are like a flower growin' in the wildwood

Bringing pleasure to the eyes

I am like a river after a rainstorm

Ragin' away too fast to die

You are a flower, I am a river

Without love we’re both a-just a-wastin' time

You are like a rainbow spread against a blue sky

Sunrise is your next of kin

I am like a whirlwind roarin' across the desert

The kind some hope to never see again

You are a rainbow, I am a whirlwind

Without love we’re both just a-wastin' time

You are like a diamond shinin' in the sunlight

Sparkling and precious to see

I am like a drifter, I’m always going some place

I never get to where I’m supposed to be

You are a diamond, I am a drifter

Without love we’re both a-just a-wastin' time

You are like a prayer rising up to heaven

Pleasing the one upon whom you call

I am like a scarecrow alone in the distance

Close by, there are those who would see me fall

You are a prayer, I am a scarecrow

Without love we’re both a-just a-wastin' time

Without love we’re both a-just a-wastin' time
