Songs and Memories

IF I DIDN'T HAVE YOU

I don't know what I was thinking, 'till 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, and would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart
To let you know how I feel
There's nowhere where I wouldn't follow
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't wanna 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
And you made it right

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 the hole, baby
Here in my heart

I'd give up my sight, just to see you
I'd beg, and 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 where 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
That I wouldn't want to be me
If I didn't have you.
