You're telling me I got a lot to gain
And this feeling that I feel its only temporary pain
But when a heart is breaking dont they all just break the same?
Im no exception to the simple rules that have already been laid

Girl I got nothing if I aint got you
So if you have all the answers could you tell me what to do?
I dont want to be here if it aint with you
So could you tell the truth
You know that this isnt just temporary

I wish that I could read your mind
So I could see the thoughts alive
The thoughts you use to justify a single style of life
We never fight, I never made you cry
So this is all a big surprise

Girl I got nothing if I aint got you
So if you have all the answers could you tell me what to do?
I dont want to be here if it aint with you
So could you tell the truth
You know that this isnt just temporary
No, no, no

Baby girl I,
I wanna live in the life that includes you
Im trying to give you the world that doesnt suit you
Baby nothings gonna stop me now, oh no
I wanna work on the love that isnt there yet
Okay its not what you want but nothings perfect
Baby cant you see you're all that I need

Girl I got nothing if I aint got you
So if you have all the answers could you tell me what to do?
I dont want to be here if it aint with you
So could you tell the truth
You know that this isnt just temporary

Girl I got nothing if I aint got you
So if you have all the answers could you tell me what to do?
I dont want to be here if it aint with you
So could you tell the truth
You know that this isnt just temporary

Your love, this love
Maybe thats whats temporary
Oh no, oh no
