If I Ain't Got You

This is another of my favourite songs. It is sung by Alicia Keys. She is a really talented singer and musician. She has such a powerful voice. i really like her playing the piano and singing at the same. i am tryng to listen closely to her piano playing and get the rhythmn and chords; am halfway there. Here's her song (uploaded by andersonpilet).





Mmmmmmm, mmmmmm

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things define what's within
And I been there before but that life's a bore, so full of the superficial

Chorus:
Some people want it all, but I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby, if I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings, some just want everything
But everything means nothing, if I ain't got you, yeah

Some people search for a fountain
The promise is forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be

No one to share with, no one who truly cares for me

Chorus:
Some people want it all, but I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby, if I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings, some just want everything
But everything means nothing, if I ain't got you, you, you

Some people want it all, but I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby, if I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings, some just want everything
But everything means nothing, if I ain't got you, yeah

If I ain't got you with me baby, ohh, ooo
Say nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me baby
