Can't Live Without You
Scorpions Lyrics

One, two, one, two, three, four
The band is gearing up to perform

You stand in front of the band with all those scarves in your hands
The singer sees a fan with scarves standing in front of the band

I see you play imaginary guitars
The singer notices the fan pretending to play an instrument

You people shaking your heads
The fans are enthusiastically nodding along to the music

Right till the end of the set
The fans remain energized throughout the show

You really turn me on wherever we are
The singer finds the fans' enthusiasm and support exhilarating

Put your hands in the air so I can see you are there
The singer wants the fans to actively participate in the show

I want to see all your lights shining on
The singer wants to see the crowd's lighters or cell phone lights illuminating the venue

Want you to stand up and dance gonna leave you no chance
The singer encourages the crowd to dance and will play songs back to back without giving them a chance to catch their breath

To take a breath between each single song
The crowd will not have a break between songs

Stand up and shout
The singer wants the crowd to become loud and energized

We're ready to rock, we're ready to roll
The band is fully prepared to put on a great show

Are you ready, are you ready
The singer asks the crowd if they are ready to rock

Come on and get it
The singer wants the crowd to enjoy themselves and let loose

Can't live, can't live without you
The singer needs the support of the fans to feel fulfilled

(Can't live, can't live without you)
Repeating the chorus emphasizes the importance of the fans to the singer
