"I first heard Living Without You via Harry Nilsson and his superb record Nilsson Sings Newman covering the songs of Randy Newman. It helped me discover who Randy Newman was and I became such a fan of his early work that another one of his compositions is also on this EP. If you're a serious songwriter, Randy AND Harry should be studied. Harry's version of Living Without You is a stunning example of their joined brilliance."
lyrics
The milk truck hauls the sun up
The paper hits the door
And the subway shakes my floor
And I think about you
Time to face the dawning gray
Of another lonely day
It's so hard living without you
It's so hard
It's so hard
It's so hard living without you
Ev'ryone's got something
They're out tryin' to get some more
They got something to get up for
But I ain't about to
Nothing's gonna happen
Nothing's gonna change
It's so hard living without you
It's so hard
It's so hard
It's so hard living without you
