Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Warner Chappell Music, Inc. Love cannot exist without the power and emotion of music. Music allows people to appreciate the beauty of nature and the mysteries of life, even if they don't understand them. I'll never know what makes that grass so tall There are some mysteries in life that cannot be explained, but music provides an emotional outlet to deal with them. I'll never know what makes the rain to fall I got my trouble and woe but, sure as I know, the Jordan will rollĭespite life's challenges, music gives hope and encourages perseverance.Īnd I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soulĪs long as there is music in one's life, they can find the strength to continue. Without music, life would lack purpose and meaning. In the absence of music, life would be desolate and unproductive. Music inspires creativity and motivates people to work hard towards their goals. That field of corn would never see a plow When things go wrong a man ain't got a friendĭuring difficult times, music is a loyal and supportive companion.Įmphasizes the importance of music in life. Music helps to create new perspectives and change the direction of one's life. Life would be dull and meaningless without music to fill the void. This song is a classic example of the great orchestration and sublime lyricism of the big band era, and a testament to the profound effect that music can have on individuals. Overall, the song argues that music is an essential aspect of human existence, providing the soul with the strength to survive life's hardships. The last verse alludes to the mystery of the natural world, but acknowledges that the one thing we do know is that life without a song is a bleak existence. The third verse explains that a field of corn is helpless without a plow, likening it to a human being who can't accomplish anything without the motivating power of music. The second verse notes that a man without music has no friends, and those are the moments where music can lift your spirit and console you.
The first verse starts by saying that without a song, the day would never end and the road would never bend, meaning that the day would drag on and life would be monotonous and unchanging. The lyrics describe the vital role music plays in human existence, suggesting that without music, life would be devoid of meaning and joy. The song Without a Song is an expressive tribute to the power of music.
