Lyrics of If I Ain't Got You (feat. USHER) by Alicia Keys
verse
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
pre-chorus
Some people think
That the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
That life's a bore
So full of the superficial
chorus
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah
verse
Some people search for a fountain
Promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
pre-chorus
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me
chorus
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
chorus
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah
outro
If I ain't got you with me, baby, oh, ooh
Said nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me, baby
