Ross Diana & The Supremes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My world is empty without you, babe
And as I go my way alone
I find it hard for me to carry on
I need your strength
I need your tender touch
I need the love, my dear, I miss so much
My world is empty without you, babe
From this old world I try to hide my face
But from this loneliness there's no hiding place
Inside this cold and empty house I dwell
In darkness with memories I know so well
I need your love more than before
I can hardly carry on anymore
My world is empty without you, babe
Without you babe, without you babe
My mind and soul have felt like this
Since love between us no more exist
And each time that darkness falls
If finds me alone with these four walls
My world is empty without you, babe
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you babe

My world is empty without you, babe
My life feels bleak and joyless without you, my beloved
And as I go my way alone
Since you are not with me, I am forced to walk this path alone
I find it hard for me to carry on
I struggle to continue living without you
I need your strength
I long for the emotional support only you can provide
I need your tender touch
I crave your gentle touch and comfort
I need the love, my dear, I miss so much
I desperately yearn for the love we once shared that is now gone
From this old world I try to hide my face
I attempt to escape the pain of this world by hiding myself away
But from this loneliness there's no hiding place
Regardless of where I go, I cannot escape the loneliness
Inside this cold and empty house I dwell
I am trapped in a house that feels cold and devoid of life
In darkness with memories I know so well
I am surrounded by darkness and thoughts of our time together
I need your love more than before
I require your love more than ever in this moment
I can hardly carry on anymore
It feels almost impossible for me to continue without you by my side
My mind and soul have felt like this
My mental and emotional state has been this way for some time
Since love between us no more exist
My world has been empty since the love between us ended
And each time that darkness falls
Whenever darkness descends upon me
If finds me alone with these four walls
I am alone, trapped within these four walls
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you, I am incomplete and lost
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you, my life holds no meaning or purpose
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you, I am nothing and my world is empty.
Without you babe, without you babe
Without you, everything seems meaningless and devoid of joy
