Patti LaBelle
If I Didn’t Have You
I've been up and I’ve been down
Couldn't find my way around
You guided me through the rough times
Yes you did, baby
I used to think that I couldn't make it through
You gave me the courage to do what I had to do
Boy, I don’t know how I could have made it
If I didn't have you

You've given me all the inspiration I need
So that I could succeed in all I tried to do
I'm sorry for leaning on you so much
But I can't help myself, baby
You're a part of me
You're part of my everything

Some people make mistakes
I've made mistakes too
Not too long ago I even turned my back on you, baby
Even though I broke your heart
You let me give our love a new start
I don’t know how I could have made it
If I didn’t have you

If I didn't have you
I don’t know what I'd do
I don't deserve someone as sweet as you
No, no, no, no, not, not, not me, baby
Every time I think about how sweet you are
You're like a shooting star
Flying through the sky on a summer night
I love you
I love the way you treat me, baby
I’ll make it up to you one day
Just you wait and see
Just you wait and see what I'm gonna do

Oh, I swear I'll never make you cry
Tell all the bad things we had between us bye-bye, baby
You are the one I'm thinking of
You are the only one I love
Boy, I don't know what I would do
If I didn't have you

I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do
Said I'm gonna hug you so much
Kiss you so much

Baby, that's what I'm gonna do to you

If I didn't have you
I don't know what I'd do...
