if i didn't have you

i don't know what i was thinking

'til i was thinking of you

i don't remember a thing before

i opened my eyes and you came into view

i don't know what i was doing

when there was nothing to do

must've been waiting for someone

baby

now i can see

i was waiting for you

i'd give up my sight just to see you

i'd beg

i would borrow and steal

i'd cut off my hands just to touch you

and tear out my heart so you'd know how i feel

there's nowhere that i wouldn't follow

there's nothing that i wouldn't do

'cause i wouldn't want to be me

if i didn't have you

driving myself to distraction

until you got in my way

i was just whistling dixie 'til you

struck up the band and they started to play

i don't know how i was living

until you came in my life

i always knew there was something wrong

then you came along

baby

you made it right

i'd give up my sight just to see you

i'd beg

i would borrow and steal

i'd cut off my hands just to touch you

and tear out my heart so you'd know how i feel

there's nowhere that i wouldn't follow

there's nothing that i wouldn't do

'cause i wouldn't want to be me

if i didn't have you

i was alone in the silence

'til i was hearing your voice

i couldn't see my way clear until

you parted the clouds and you gave me a choice

i couldn't pick up the pieces

'til i was falling apart

i didn't know i was bleeding

'til your love fixed this hole

baby

here in my heart

i'd give up my sight just to see you

i'd beg

i would borrow and steal

i'd cut off my hands just to touch you

and tear out my heart so you'd know how i feel

there's nowhere that i wouldn't follow

there's no place that i'd rather be

this life without you would be hollow

this love is a gift

and you gave it to me

all that i am

you have made me

and baby

i know that it's true

i'd give it all up in a heartbeat

just to spend every moment with you

there's no place that i wouldn't follow

there's nothing that i wouldn't do

'cause i wouldn't want to be me

if i didn't have you
