"What's It All For?" lyrics

The last time you kissed me
We stood at your door
I could taste on your lips
You were promising more

How can you love someone
Till you don't anymore?
Oh, if that's all there is
Then what's it all for?

Why have a family
If that ain't what you want?
Why have a child
You don't know how to love?

I've asked all of these questions
And I still got more
Oh, if that's all there is
Then what's it all for?

What's it all for?
What's it all for?
If I ever knew
Well, I don't anymore

You stand at the gates
At the end of your time
And stretched out before you
Are scenes from your life

All that sweet, simple pain
And the cold, bitter joy
Oh, if that's all there is
Then what's it all for?

Yeah, I've got so many questions
Will you spare me one more?
Oh, if that's all there is
Then what's it all for?
