If There Were No You - Darlene McCoy

If There Were No You - Darlene McCoy
If there was no car I would take a bus
Phone I'd write a letter
If there was no food I would have to drink some water
If there was no paper I'd have toÿ use my hand
If there were no chairs then I guess I'd have to stand
If there were no lights I would light a fire
Candles then I'd remember
If there were no songs then I'd have to write a poem
If you hadn't saved me then all I know is wrong
If there were no you I would be alone
If there were no you
There'd be no one byÿ my side
You're the one I run and cried to when I felt I had to
If there were no you
I'd be just like that tail of a ship without a sail
Tossed and driven
If there were no you
I wouldn't be satisfied yet I would not be alive
If there were no you
Don't know what I'd do if there were no you
If there was no
House I could live outside
Eat yet I would survive
If there were no flowers
We'd see beauty in the pastor
If there were no seasons
That'd be different but don't need them
If there was no snow
I could do without the cold
If there was no money doesn't mean I'd die
No credit I wouldn't even cry
If there were no malls or no stores
That's just a sacrifice
If you hadn't made me none of this would matter
If there were no you
This world wouldn't have happenedÿ
If there were no you
There'd be no one byÿ my side
You're the one I run and cried to when I felt I had to
If there were no you
I'd be just like that tail of a ship without a sail
Tossed and driven
If there were no you
I wouldn't be satisfied yet I would not be alive
If there were no you
Don't know what I'd do if there were no you
You are the first and the last
The beginning and the end
The start and the finish
Take away your love
And the earth would perish
I ain't trying to be the lost or the left behind
So I'm depending on you to stay forever
God give you to a stree
And you are trust
Take away you're grace
And the earth would fall
I ain't trying to be the forgotten
If there were no you
There'd be no one byÿ my side
You're the one I run and cried to when I felt I had to
If there were no you
I'd be just like that tail of a ship without a sail
Tossed and driven
If there were no you
I wouldn't be satisfied yet I would not be alive
If there were no you
Don't know what I'd do if there were no you
There were no you
