How Do I Live
LeAnn Rimes Lyrics
How do I get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kinda life would that be
Oh I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You are my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away
Everything good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you?
I want to know
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Without you
There would be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I, baby, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away
Everything real in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Please tell me baby how do I go on
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby don't you know that you are
Everything good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
How do I live without you?
How do I live without you, baby?
How do I live without you?

"How Do I Live" is a 1997 song, written by Diane Warren. It was released originally by Trisha Yearwood and shortly afterward by Leann Rimes.
The song was originally intended for release as a single for the 1997 action blockbuster Con Air soundtrack. Warren wrote the song for Rimes to sing. The film producers felt that Rimes' version had too much of a pop feeling to it, and requested that she re-record it to fit their standards. She refused, and the producers chose Trisha Yearwood to record the song. Read Full Bio"How Do I Live" is a 1997 song, written by Diane Warren.

The film producers felt that Rimes' version had too much of a pop feeling to it, and requested that she re-record it to fit their standards. She refused, and the producers chose Trisha Yearwood to record the song. Her more country-style version was released on May 27, 1997 and appeared in the film. When Rimes heard of the release, she quickly released her version.
Despite only peaking as high as number seven in the UK Singles Chart[1], LeAnn Rimes' version of How Do I Live spent thirty-four weeks in the chart. It set a record for staying on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for sixty-nine weeks. The song entered the Top 25 Country singles chart on June 21, 1997 and was still there in February 2003, a record 291 weeks (five and half years) later.
How Do I Live was covered by F.I.R. (Faye and Real featuring LeAnn Rimes). F.I.R. invited Rimes to record a portion of the song for their third album Flight Tribe in 2006.
The song has also been performed on the hit show American Idol, Vonzell Solomon in Season 4, Paris Bennett in Season 5, and Meosha Denton in Season 2. It was also part of American Idol Season 2 compilation, sung by Carmen Rasmusen.
Rimes' version ranks at #4 on Billboard's All Time Top 100.[2] The single has been certified 3x Platinum by the RIAA for shipments of over 3 million copies in the United States.[3] On the digital front, it routinely shifts more than 1,000 units per week, for a to-date total in excess of 203,000.
Both the Rimes and the Yearwood versions debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 on the week ending June 14, 1997. LeAnn Rimes' version peaked at number two and spent a record-breaking sixty-nine weeks on the chart, more than any other song in history, (until Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" (2008) and spent 34 weeks on the UK singles chart. Trisha Yearwood's version was moving quickly up the charts, getting as high as number twenty-three, when MCA refused to issue any more copies of the single, for fear of cannibalizing album sales. The limited press run of 300,000 sold out quickly, and the single was off the Hot 100 after twelve weeks. Yearwood's single on the country charts quickly climbed all the way to number 2. Rimes' version spent 11 weeks atop the Adult Contemporary chart.[5] In Australia, Rimes' version peaked on the ARIA Charts at number 17 while Yearwood's peaked at number 2.
In 1998, for the first time in history, the Grammy Awards nominated two artists for the same song in the same category. Directly following LeAnn Rimes' performance of the song, Trisha Yearwood won the Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.[6] Yearwood also performed the song at the Country Music Awards for which she won the 1997 award for Female Vocalist of the Year[7] Yearwood also won the 1997 ACM Award for Top Female Vocalist.[8] The single was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song, but lost to My Heart Will Go On.[9] Yearwood performed the song at the ceremony.

I was told when my Sonwas born that his heart was abnormal, that it was in the shape of a figure eight. They were sending him to Valley Children's Hospital, which is about 10-15 minutes away. They gave me a little time alone with him there in the nursery while they prepared for transport.
I sat in the rocking chair, holding him close, telling him how much I loved him as I cried what I felt like was an ocean of tears.
I saw a group of people through the glass oohing and seeing at another baby there in the nursery, not caring if they saw what I was going through.
When they came to take my son down to the waiting ambulance, I felt as though I couldn't breath and was in near hysteria. The nurse gave me a snapshot of my baby taken moments before I came to tell him goodbye. She said it was so I could still "take him home" with me that night. A super sweet gesture, but it only made my heart heavier as I clutched it to my chest and walked slowly out of the nursery.
The group of people were there still in the hallway and they turned to me and asked me if I didn't mind what was wrong with my baby. They said they saw how I was obviously in agony and they could see that I loved him very much.
So I told them what the pediatrician had said.
They then asked me if it would be alright for them to pray with me for the health of my baby. I told them yes please.
We all gathered hands, bowed out heads and someone began to pray as the rest of them gave praise and I continued to sob.
A few hours later, I was discharged and arrived at Children's Hospital where my son was. There I was met by a doctor who had examined him upon arrival.
He asked me, " Can you tell me why they sent him here? He obviously isn't premature, and he's a pretty healthy guy...", ( he was 9lbs. 8oz.!)
I told him they said he had a figure 8 heart.
He looked at just baffled, and said "There's nothing wrong with his heart, but we'll keep him overnight for observation."
I knew that God had been with us there in that circle of prayer in that hallway. I knew he heard us and I absolutely, positively knew that He healed my baby.
That night with my snapshot I sat in the rocking chair at home and listened to this song over and over, still crying.
It became the song I would rock my baby with many many nights.
My son turned 18 today. He just left with his girl to go bowling after having pizza, cake and ice cream. Here I sit still crying, listening to this beautiful song, and giving thanks for the extraordinary gift God blessed me with 18 years ago.
Knowing that he'll leave me soon to be on his own has got me thinking of how it all went so fast. And how do I live without him here with me?
At the same time I just fill so very very fortunate and grateful for the gift God gave me all those years, a beautiful healthy baby boy,,, my Son.

How do I get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kinda life would that be
Oh I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You are my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away
Everything good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you?
I want to know
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Without you
There would be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I, baby, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
