I guess I perfected the art of placing the blame It's just so easy It's just so easy cursin' your name I lost my train of thought when your words cut me off But then I realized The only clothes hangin' on the line to dry were mine If I don't have you (if I don't have you) If I don't have If I don't have If I don't have you (you) If I don't have If I don't have you I guess I'll have to learn to love myself If I can't have you, there's no one else So, I spent some time just lookin' at the mirror And I saw the face of a little girl, oh boy And I realized all that little girl needed was a little bit of love If I don't have you (if I don't have you) If I don't have If I don't have If I don't have you (you) If I don't have If I don't have you I guess I'll have to learn to love myself If I can't have you, there's no one else I guess I'll have to learn to love myself If I can't have you, there's no one else
