Lyrics: Lisa Stansfield. If I Hadn't Got You.

If I hadn't got you
If I hadn't got you

Whose friend would I be
If I lied all the time
If you never trusted my word

The love that we make
When feelings run high
Is all that makes sense in the world

And I can never go back, oh no
For a moment of sweet solitude
If I ever go back
I'd be looking for you

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend wound I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in solitary

If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows

Who's friend would I be if
I can't take a joke
If I can't pull a smile from a tear

The love that I feel
Whenever you're close
Makes yesterday's hurt disappear

And I can never go back, oh, no
For a moment of sweet solitude
With my head in my hands
I've been waiting for you

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend would I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in solitary

If I hadn't got you
Whose air would I breathe
If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows

So don't turn away
Never go back, hold onto love
'Cause love is all we have
Maybe you'll be
Lost in this world without me

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend would I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in misery

If I hadn't got you
Whose air would I breathe
If I hadn't got you, yeah
(If I hadn't got you)
(If I hadn't got you)

If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows, God only knows
God only knows
