Town Without Pity Lyrics

Artist: Gene Pitney

When you're young and so in love as we
And bewildered by the world we see
Why do people hurt us so
Only those in love would know
What a town without pity can do

If we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how bad we are
Ours is not an easy age
We're like tigers in a cage
What a town without pity can do

The young have problems, many problems
We need an understanding heart
Why don't they help us, try and help us
Before this clay and granite planet falls apart

Take these eager lips and hold me fast
I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do

How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do

No, it isn't very pretty what a town without pity

Comments/Interpretations
by Jason Kay on 6/20/2008 11:47pm If you love this song, listen to Arlen Roth's cover version of it! The female vocalist with the whistle register voice who did the Star Trek theme song does the high harmony. It's an amazing cover of a classic song!
by jennifer on 7/29/2008 7:34pm I tried to find the version you recommended, with no luck. Can you provide any link or anything? I'm dying to hear it now lol!

by Mommy in Ohio on 11/15/2008 9:22am I sing this song to my 14 month old and he thinks the end is hysterical!
by Thomas Lawrie-Clark, UK on 1/9/2009 5:26pm Check out Eddie Reader's version. Amazing and the best out there.
