Before his stint in Incognito, Momrelle was already a solo recording artist who released two studio albums under his name. Also, he was once a member of gospel music group Seven. In a year, he toured with both D'Sound, and the Brand New Heavies as a guest performer. His success in touring impressed Incognito's frontman, Bluey Maunick, and he offered him the job as the vocalist of the acid-jazz outfit.
He made his Incognito full-debut on the band's 2006 album, Bees + Things + Flowers, in which he contributed as a main vocalist.
I Can't Live Without You
Tony Momrelle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a song and a raise of my hands
For all the things you've done for me
You were there to help me grow
And was there through the highs and the lows
Right there at the point of my need
That's why I gotta say
With your love I'm so amazed
That's why I love you so
And I want the whole world to know
That your love is the best love
Life that I've ever know
I can't live without you
Don't know what I'd do
If were not here within my life
I can't live without you
Don't know what Id do
If were not here within my life
You're the one I can always call
You pick me up everytime that i fall
Because your right there by my side
Like a flower needs the rain
For your love I need it the same
Without it how would I survive
That's why I gotta say
With your love I'm so amazed
Nothing in this world can compare
That's why I love you so
And I want the whole world to know
That your love is the best love
Life that I've ever know
I can't live without you
Don't know what I'd do
If were not here within my life
I can't live without you
Don't know what I'd do
If were not here within my life
Oh where would I be
If you hadn't rescued me
With your love
That's what you did yeah
When life was such a strain
Oh you came to heal the pain with your love
I'd be lost without your love
So lost without your love
I'd be lost without your love
And I am so grateful
I can't live without you
Don't know what I'd do
If were not here within my life
I can't live without you
Don't know what I'd do
If were not here within my life
Can't live without you
Can't live without you
Can't live without you

They cannot imagine what they would do or how they would continue without this person by their side. They rely on this person for support, as they are the one they can always call and who picks them up every time they fall.
