World Without Love
Mavericks Lyrics

The Mavericks' "World Without Love" is a ballad that tells the story of a lover who suffers from loneliness and is willing to be locked away rather than living in a world without love. The pain of feeling alone is likened to being in a prison cell, and the only way the character can cope with the pain is to avoid the outside world. The lyrics express a longing for a true love to come and make everything better. The line "She may come I know not when, when she does I know" suggests that hope keeps the character going, despite the discomfort of living in isolation. The song's overall message, therefore, is one of hope in the face of loneliness and the belief that love will come and change everything.

In addition to its powerful message, "World Without Love" has an interesting backstory. It was originally written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon in 1963, but the song was not released by The Beatles until 1977. Peter and Gordon were the first to record it and make it a hit in the same year it was written. In 1995, The Mavericks recorded a version of the track, which was included in their album "Music for All Occasions." The song was well-received and became a hit in many countries.
