So, if you didn't exist
Tell me why I would exist
To hang around on a world without you
Empty of hope and empty of regret

So, if you didn't exist
I might try to invent love
Like a painter who can see with a stroke of his hand
The birth of all the colors of the day
And who can't believe his eyes

So, if you didn't exist
Tell me then who I would exist for
These wanderers, asleep in my arms
That I could never really love

So, if you didn't exist
I'd be nothing more than another speck
On this world that comes and goes
I would feel lost
I would need you

So, if you didn't exist
Tell me how I would exist
I could pretend to be me
But it wouldn't be the real thing

So, if you didn't exist
I think that I might have found it
The secret of life, the reason why
Which is simply to create you
And to be able to look at you

So, if you didn't exist
Tell me why I would exist
To hang around on a world without you
Empty of hope and empty of regret

So, if you didn't exist
I might try to invent love
Like a painter who can see with a stroke of his hand
The birth of all the colors of the day
