If I Can't Have You

If I Can't Have You You tell me that you’re leaving You say that time Will slow the bleeding Of this heart that I’ve Placed into your hands I held it out to you Now you give it back what am I supposed to do? Oh I had a feeling this day would come And leave me reeling I just want to run back in your arms again But they’re no longer there To hold me safe inside To hold me anywhere Ooh If I can’t have you Then I have to find a way to get through Though I don’t want to I have to do my best to recall That I’m thankful that I held you at all I miss you every morning And in the evening rain Tonight it’s pouring And I’m alone again I count the seconds Between the thoughts of you I’m getting better baby, I’m almost up to two You had your reasons And I know Some folks are seasons They’ve got to come and go But I’m still tender I miss the summertime When I could feel your love and I could still feel mine Ooh If I can’t have you Then I have to find a way to get through Though I don’t want to I have to do my best to recall That I’m thankful that I held you You gave me everything that I will need to walk this long road (showed me a way to get by) Gave me a sense of pride That I will carry with me all the way back home Ooh If I can’t have you Then I have to find a way to get through Though I don’t want to I have to do my best to recall That I’m thankful that I held you at all I’m thankful that I held you I’m thankful that I held you…
