Well, I lost my heart on the day we met
But I gained a lot and that I don't regret
Then I hung around 'til you said "I do"
I knew I wouldn't have nothin' if I didn't have you
♪
Well, it changed my thinkin' when you changed your name
And neither one of us will ever be the same
And I swear I'm never gonna be untrue
'Cause I wouldn't have nothin' if I didn't have you
If I didn't have you I'd long ago been left in the dark out in the cold
Blowin' around from town to town like a feather in the wind
If I didn't have you I know I'd be flounderin' around like a ship at sea
Lost in the rain of a hurricane and that's where I'd have been
But I didn't get lost 'cause I saw your light
Shinin' like a beacon on a cold dark night
And the sun came up and the skies turned blue
No, I wouldn't have nothin' if I didn't have you
♪
Well, I count my blessings every night I pray
That the Lord lets me keep you just one more day
And every day He does, 'cause God knows too
That I wouldn't have nothin' if I didn't have you
If I didn't have you I'd long ago been left in the dark out in the cold
Blowin' around from town to town like a feather in the wind
If I didn't have you I know I'd be flounderin' around like a ship at sea
Lost in the rain of a hurricane and that's where I'd have been
But I didn't get lost 'cause I saw your light
Shinin' like a beacon on cold dark night
Then the sun came up and the skies turned blue
No, I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you
Well, I've already said it but I swear it's true
I know I wouldn't have nothin' if I didn't have you
