Verse 1
Well i lost my heart on the day we met
But i gained a lot that i don't regret
Then i hung around till you said i do
I knew i wouldn't have nothin'
If i didn't have you


Verse 2
Well it changed my thinking
When you changed your name
And neither one of us will ever be the same
And i swear i'm never gonna be untrue
'cause i wouldn't have nothin'
If i didn't have you


Chorus
If i didn't have you i'd long ago
Been left in the dark out in the cold
Blowing around from town to town
Like a feather in the wind
If i didn't have you i know i'd be
Floundering around like a ship at sea
Lost in the rain of a hurricane
That's where i'd have been


Verse 3
But i didn't get lost 'cause i saw your light
Shining like a beacon on a cold dark night
And the sun came up and the skies turned blue
No i wouldn't have nothing
If i didn't have you


Verse 4
Well i count my blessings every night i pray
That the lord lets me keep you just one more day
And every day he does 'cause god knows too
That i wouldn't have nothing
If i didn't have you

(chorus & third verse)

Well i've already said it but i swear it's true
I know i wouldn't have nothing
If i didn't have you
