If I can't have you Lyrics

Don't know why
I'm survivin' every lonely day
When there's got to be no chance for me
My life would end
And it doesn't matter how I cry
My tears, so far, are a waste of time
If I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily to you my love
To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

Oh! If I can't have you...

Cover art for If I can't have you lyrics by Yvonne Elliman

Basically she's saying Shes tried being with other people, but nothing compares to her first love, which is this guy! The fact is though , deep down she knows she and this guy will never be together and her dreams will never come true. For reasons such as unrequited love, or other reasons. So she know's she can't let go , nothing or nobody else compares to this guy. So she's saying well If I can't have you then sod it I'll remain single, I don't want nobody else.

The lyrics are very simple, but so catching. It's like when you try to meet new people and give them a chance just to forget the one you truly love. The problem is that you can't stop comparing that specific person to all the others, and when you do that you just realize that nobody is like him. So you keep on suffering, but you don't really want to stop crying because the sufference is the only thing that keeps you in contact with that person. This is probably the most genuine and deep part of love

I love this song! It's an oldie but it's a goodie. This one always gets me dancing and singing along, wherever i am. It'slike a disco motown track and Yvonne's vocals are great on this. It's a classic.

Who can't clearly see that like so very many country songs about your lover that doesn't want to be with you, you are a true stalker!

These lyrics are simple and to the point To you my love To dreams that will never come true Am I strong enough to see it through Go crazy is what I will do Which is now what I'm going through but also sure I might not make it through And fighting so hard to hold back the tears If I can't have you I don't want nobody baby If I can't have you uh-ho-oh
