And I, go to pieces and I wanna hide
Go to pieces and I almost die
Everytime my baby passes by
I tell my arms they'll hold someone new
Another love that will be true
But they don't listen, they don't seem to care
They reach for her but she's not there
And I, go to pieces and I wanna hide
Go to pieces and I almost die
Everytime my baby passes by
I remember what she said when she said
"Goodbye baby. We'll meet again soon maybe"
"But until we do, all my best to you"
I'm so lonely, I think about her only
I go to places we used to go
But I know she'll never show
She hurt me so much inside
Now I hope she's satisfied
And I, go to pieces and I wanna hide
Go to pieces and I almost die
Everytime my baby passes by
Go to pieces and I cry
Everytime my baby passes by
Go to pieces and I cry
A World Without Love, by Peter and Gordon

Peter And Gordon
Peter Asher, Jane Asher's brother, and Gordon Waller joined together in 1962 and performed under the name of Peter And Gordon.
In 1964, they covered an early composition written by Paul McCartney called A World Without Love, which reached #1 in the US and UK charts.
They performed this song live at the TV special The Music Of Lennon And McCartney, which was broadcasted in December 1965.
Paul wrote two other songs in 1964 which were custom built for the duo, Nobody I Know and I Don't Want To See You Again.
Woman, another song written by Paul under the pseudonym of Bernard Webb, was given to the duo in 1966.
After the split of Peter And Gordon in 1967, Peter Asher got nominated to the post of artistic director at Apple Corporation.
He also became producer and manager of Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor.

Please lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
Birds sing out of tune
And rain clouds hide the moon
I'm OK, here I'll stay
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when
When she does I lose
So baby until then
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say
I won't stayIn a world without love

So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when
When she does I lose
So baby until then
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
