Without You Love 
Words & Music by 
James L. Saad c 2013 

Verse 1 
Without your love 
I would never survive. 
Without your love 
I would never survive. 
Without your heart 
(beating in mine) 
I would always be alone. 
Without your heart 
there is no place 
to call my home. 

It’s only you 
who’s always loved me 
for the sorry soul I am. 

Without your love 
I’d be just a lonely man. 

Verse 2 
Without your smile 
the world is painted gray. 
Without your smile 
there is no purpose to each day. 

It’s just the way 
you’ve always touched me 
that made the man that I became. 

Without your love 
things would never be the same. 

Bridge 
Now together through this life 
oh we treasure all our dreams fulfilled. 
And together we belong 
to each other as we have willed. 

Verse 3 
And with your heart 
our dreams will always stay alive. 
And with your heart 
our spirit will always 
want to fly. 

But it’s just the way 
of this old world 
when two hearts can break 
after beating as one; 

but with your love 
I will always belong. 
And with your love 
I will always belong.

I agree with Dan.  It's simple but elegant.  HNY to you!

Very heart touching song Jimmy and everything sounds right in place. Nice guitar and instrumentation and your vocals are well felt (great lyrics) and a nice mix brings this full circle. Lovely song!! Hope you had a blessed Christmas.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Love the sparseness & simplicity of it.
You have a great voice and the backing vocals are really good.
Great use of the orchestra cymbal aswell bro, Im gonna try use that soon!
 
Would love to hear it with a crisp RnB ballad type beat as opposed to the standard 4/4 drum beat you have there like this for e.g http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isJ86DZWwVY, anyway, only a thought.

Nice music and lyrics ( how the lyrics are, is very important )
it can make a song very strong.
no matter how god the music are, without any meaningful lyrics
a song can fall into the ground...

The mix is great

Very well done 

Hi James,
 
Much thanks for your kind comments and lyrics and the mix.  I did spend some time on this one and glad you liked it.

Very nice Jimmy.

Great sound and sentiments.  The vocal and BGV's sound terrific!
Happy New Year.

Great job on this little gem. The vox seemed to be too up front but my iPad lies to me a lot.

I think the lead is a taste hot but overall it seemed to work so I left it alone.  Thanks for the listen and nice words.

Hup... (for reasons described previously)

Nice...really nice.
 
I like the simplicity of this. You have a well written song. There's a lot to like about this.
 
I'd like to make 2 suggestions to you.
 
Remove one word or perhaps one line. Take out the word "sorry" and find a better word to use there. It may even be better to write a new line. Everything else in the song is so uplifting and positive,  then that one line puts you down. It's out of the character of the rest of the lyrics. Find a replacement and it will make the song so much better.
 
Second..... while I liked the Rhodes, I'd love to hear this with a nice Acoustic Grand of some make or the other. Just a personal preference there.
 
This is a seriously good song.

Nice one Jimmy. Very touching.
 
I'm confused though.
 
"it’s only you 
who’s always loved me 
for the sorry soul I am. "
 
"It’s just the way 
you’ve always touched me 
that made the man that I became."
 
hmm. I'll have to ponder that.
