I, I who have nothing
|
I, I who have no one
|
Adore you, and want you so
|
I'm just a no one
|
With nothing to give you
|
But Ooh, I love you
|
|
(Martha)
|
She, she buys you diamonds
|
Say they're bright, they are bright sparkling diamonds
|
But believe me, boy, Ooo boy, hear what I say
|
She could give you the world
|
But she'll never love you the way
|
That I love you, baby

(Both)
|
I want to be the one that you just can't live without
|
I want to be the one that you never feel no doubt
|
I want to be the one that you let give you the lovin'
|
But, I have nothing
|

I want to be the one that you always want to be near
|
I want to say the words that your body and soul need to hear
|
I want to be the one that you let give you all the lovin'
|
But I have nothing
