Alica Keys If I ain't got you

Some people live for the fortune

Some people live just for the fame

Some people live for the power, yeah

Some people live just to play the game

Some people think that the physical things

Define what's withinAnd I've been there before

But that life's a boreSo full of the superficial

[Chorus:]

Some people want it allBut I don't want nothing at all

If it ain't you baby

If I ain't got you baby

Some people want diamond rings

Some just want everything

But everything means nothing

If I ain't got you, YeahSome people search for a fountain

That promises forever young

Some people need three dozen roses

And that's the only way to prove you love them

Hand me the world on a silver platter

And what good would it be

With no one to share

With no one who truly cares for me

[Chorus:]

Some people want it all

But I don't want nothing at all

If it ain't you baby

If I ain't got you baby

Some people want diamond rings

Some just want everything

But everything means nothing

If I ain't got you, you, you

Some people want it all

But I don't want nothing at all

If it ain't you baby

If I ain't got you baby

Some people want diamond rings

Some just want everything

But everything means nothing

If I ain't got you, yeah

[Outro:]If I ain't got you with me baby

So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing

If I ain't got you with me baby

This song says that even if you have all the wealthy you want, it doesn't if the person you love is not here.
