WITHOUT YOU (EARLY DEMOS EVOLUTION EDIT) (Pete Ham/Tom Evans)
[Pete Ham and Iveys demos from "Golden Delicious Demos (1966-69)" CD - recorded 1969 - released U.S. 2022]

Well, I can't forget this evening
And your face when you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the party goes
You always smile, but in your eyes, the sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

Well, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
I had you there and then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you must know

If it's love that you need
Do-do-doo-doo-doo-doo-dooo
If it's love that you need
Do-do-doo-doo-doo-doo-dooo

And now it's gone and I can't seem to find
Happiness and good times, have I left them all behind?
Or is it just another way to let me know
That in this life you only reap after you sow?

I can't give if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live (oooh) if living is without you
I can't live, I can't live anymore

Well, I can't forget this evening
And your face when you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the party goes
You always smile, but in your eyes, the sorrow shows, mm it shows

Well, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
I had you there and then I let you go
And now, it's only fair that I should let you know (I let you know)

I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore

Well, I can't forget this evening
And your face when you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the party goes
You always smile, but in your eyes, the sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
Oooo-ooo-ooo-ah-oooooo-oo
