without you
Usher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love, such a lonely place
Nobody wants to be alone (baby now that you're gone)
To have the world yet no one to share it with

I am so alone
And I can't stand this feeling of being without you
Yes I'll do whatever it takes to prove I truly love you
Don't let me go
Let's stay together, forever and ever
Can't sleep without you by my side





Help me

@@erickgonzalorosaleschavez7276 Do you know?

Life, you never know the minute it ends suddenly, and you can`t get it back.
If only you could read the bible, then you would know perfectly, under who`s power you and I live in this fallen world.

If only you`d know, if only you´d bother to seek, the truth out, while still breathing on this earth.

Do you know what it feel like, to be forgiven all your sins you`ve ever done?
Do you know what it feel like, to feel the love of GOD in you life?

But soul, you don`t know it?. Do you?
You naively believing all these lies, which this world has to give.

LYRICS
I can't win, I can't reign
I will never win this game without you
Without you
I am lost, I am vain
I will never be the same without you
Without you

I won't run, I won't fly
I will never make it by without you
Without you
Uh, I can't rest, I can't fight
All I need is you and I, without you
Without you

Oh oh oh
You, you, you
Without you, you, you
Without you

Can't erase, so I'll take blame
But I can't accept that we're estranged without you
Without you
I can't quit now, this can't be right
I can't take one more sleepless night without you
Without you
I won't soar, I won't climb
If you're not here, I'm paralyzed without you
Without you
I can't look, I'm so blind
I lost my heart, I lost my mind without you
Without you

Oh oh oh
You, you, you
Without you, you, you
Without you

I am lost, I am vain
I will never be the same without you
Without you
Without you.
