Analysis of Without You
What would have I done without You?
I never knew the way
What would have I held onto?
I was weak and frail.
You who made me rise above all that troubled me
You who gave me strength and made me see
What am I without You
Where would I go
And now forever more,
Day in and day out I'll be loving you
There's one thing I'm sure of
And that's that I can trust you forever more
And from the start of the road until the end
You saw me off
Then I looked ahead and saw you, standing in front of me
With arms wide open to take me home with you....
