If I Can't Have You

by Yvonne Elliman

on Night Flight (1978), The Best Of Yvonne Elliman (1997)

Don't know why I'm surviving every lonely day
When there's got to be no chance for me
My life would end and it doesn't matter how I cry
My tears of love are a waste of time if I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh

Can't let go, and it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily, to you my love
To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh

Oh, if I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh (no, nobody)
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh (I don't want nobody)

If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh (nobody)
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you, ah hah hah, oh
If I can't have you
