If I Didn't Have You

By Patti LaBelle (1994)
On album Gems (1994)

Gems
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...
