If I Can’t Have You

[Instrumental Intro]

[Chorus]
(If I can't have you, can't have you
If I can't have you, baby) I don't want anything

[Verse 1]
I've been looking for so long
Hoping to find some peace of mind and happiness, yeah

[Refrain]
You came right along, just in time to save my life, thank you, baby
I want you to know, I need you more everyday (I need you)

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could have anything, that this world could ever give
It all means nothing (I need you), if I can't have you (I need you)
You can give me all things of life and if I reach my heart's desires
It all means nothing (I need you), if I can't have you (I need you)

[Chorus]
If I can't have you, can't have you
If I can't have you, baby, I don't want anything

[Verse 2]
When I consider the days gone by, gone by?
I was wasting my time, runnin' round, going nowhere, nowhere

[Refrain]
And then you came along, just in time to save my life, thank you, baby
I want you to know, I just can't live without you, baby (I need you)

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could have anything, that this world could ever give
It all means nothing (I need you), if I can't have you (I need you)
And if I had all the things of life and I reach my heart's desires
It all means nothing (I need you), if I can't have you (I need you)

[Chorus]
(If I can't have you, can't have you)
If I can't have you, baby, I don't want anything
(If I can't have you) If I can't, (Can't have you) If I can't
Don't want anything, if I can't have you, baby

[Post-Chorus]
(Para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) Ooh, if I can't have you
(Para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) I don't want anyone, but you
(Para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) If I can't have you, oh, baby
(Para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, para-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) Oh, I won't know, what if?

[Interlude]
(If I could have anything) I could have anything, (That this world could ever give) I don't need, baby
(If I could have anything) No, (That this world could ever give) I don't need nobody else, oh-oh
(If I could have anything) If I can't have you, (That this world could ever give) Don't need nobody else
(If I could have anything) I don't need, no, (That this world could ever give) No, no

[Outro]
If I can't have you, no, no
If I can't have you, no, no
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
