The Love of Life is an unidentified folk song, recorded from a radio station in Bremen, Deutschland
The song was first posted to the r/NameThatSong subreddit on 30 June 2020, by user Shabarin. They claimed that their father-in-law originally recorded it from a radio station in Bremen, Germany, in 1967. In the comments, the OP theorized that the singer is probably unsigned and quite possibly from the UK.

Like the poet without a thought for today
Or like the bird that could not fly away
Yesterday, the whole world could have been mine
But today, I feel it's no good even trying
All hope is gone, for tomorrow I'll never see
And the dreams I planned, I guess will never be
I know it's just been too long a time
And the number has been called and it was mine
All my life I've been waiting for today
And now there's just a few things left to say
Too late, I fear no one can set me free
Till now, the love of life had gone from me
