Well, I heard that you were leaving
Please, baby, tell me it ain’t true
Yeah, I heard that you were leaving
Oh, baby, tell me what to do
I’ll do whatever it takes, my darling,
Cause I ain’t nothing without you,
I ain’t nothing without you

When I woke up this morning
I saw your keys thrown on the floor
I ran down into the hallway
As you were leaving through the door
And I’ve been sitting here ever since, darling,
I don’t think I can wait here, no more
Cause I ain’t nothing without you, no

Well, I should’ve seen it coming
You lost the sincerity in your eyes
Yeah, I should’ve seen it coming
It’s been a bit different for a while
Why can’t we talk it over, darling?
Cause running away just ain’t your style
I ain’t nothing without you

I hear them church bells keep ringing
I hang my head with every chime
And them blue jazz just keep singing
Best sooth my pain with every cry
Well, if you don’t come back to me, darling
I oughta sing down my breakdown and die,
Cause I ain’t nothing without you,
Yeah
