Subject: Lyr Add: If Not For You
Thanks Alan. The time I'm most likely to not think of anything is when I'm trying. If Not for You gets my vote so far, because I think it can apply to the whole family. We can make jokes here until some folks wanna slap us, but a love song is appropriate, I b'lieve.

IF NOT FOR YOU, Bob Dylan
© 1970,1985 Big Sky Music

If not for you,
Babe, I couldn't find the door,
Couldn't even see the floor,
I'd be sad and blue,
If not for you.

If not for you,
Babe, I'd lay awake all night,
Wait for the mornin' light
To shine in through,
But it would not be new,
If not for you.

If not for you
My sky would fall,
Rain would gather too.
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all,
I'd be lost if not for you,
And you know it's true.

If not for you
My sky would fall,
Rain would gather too.
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all,
Oh! what would I do
If not for you.

If not for you,
Winter would have no spring,
Couldn't hear the robin sing,
I just wouldn't have a clue,
Anyway it wouldn't ring true,
If not for you.
