If I Didn't Have You

Well I lost my heart on the day we met,
But I gained a lot that I don't regret,
Then I hollered 'round when you said 'i do',
I knew I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you.

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 nothing 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 on a hurricane and that's where I'd have been,
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.

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]

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.
