If I Aint Got You
°¬ÀòÎ÷ÑÇ¿­Ë¹Alicia Keys Lyrics

Some people live for the fortune
There are people who live for wealth and riches.

Some people live just for the fame
There are people who live only to gain popularity and recognition.

Some people live for the power, yeah
There are people who live for the ability to control others.

Some people live just to play the game
There are people who live to compete and win in various aspects of life.

Some people think that the physical things define what's within
Some people believe that material possessions determine one's value or worth.

And I've been there before, and that life's a bore
The singer has experienced that type of life before and finds it unfulfilling.

So full of the superficial
That type of life is lacking in depth, substance, and meaning.

Some people want it all
There are people who desire everything they can possibly attain.

But I don't want nothing at all
The artist wants nothing if they don't have what truly matters to them.

If it ain't you baby
If they don't have the person they love, nothing else matters.

If I ain't got you baby
The singer needs the person they love to feel complete and fulfilled.

Some people want diamond rings
There are people who prioritize expensive jewelry and luxurious gifts.

Some just want everything
Some people desire every material possession imaginable.

But everything means nothing
All the material possessions in the world hold no value without the person they love.

If I ain't got you, yeah
The person the singer loves is truly the most important thing in their life.

Some people search for a fountain
Some people are constantly searching for something that will make them young and immortal.

That promises forever young
They are seeking something that will make them timeless and ageless.

Some people need three dozen roses
Some people need extravagant displays of love to feel valued and appreciated.

And that's the only way to prove you love them
Those individuals equate the amount of love one shows them with the size of the gift.

Hand me the world on a silver platter
Even if someone were to give the artist everything they desired, it means nothing without the person they love.

And what good would it be
All the material possessions and wealth in the world are meaningless without the person they love.

With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me
Without the person they love, everything is lonely and devoid of meaning.

If I ain't got you with me baby
The singer needs their loved one with them to find true happiness.

So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
Without their loved one, nothing else in the world matters.

If I ain't got you with me baby
The person the singer loves is the most important thing in their life, and they need them to be happy.
