If I Can't Have You



Another picture on the wall

Another life I used to live

Another meaning once untrue

With every memory of you

Broken in my sleep

Another moment lost in time

You talked of love and I agreed

So many chances passed us by

And now I¡¯ve lost the strength to try

Your love was never mine to keep

We can¡¯t hold on we¡¯re losing track

So where¡¯s the road to take us back

And how did we forget what we believed



If I can¡¯t have you

And if the love has gone

And if you just can¡¯t find it in yourself to carry on

And if you had to leave

And take my life forever

Cuz I would never be with anybody else

If I can¡¯t have you



With every night I lie awake

With every day we grow apart

Is there a promise we can¡¯t break

We never learn from our mistakes

From the very start

We can¡¯t hold on we¡¯re losing track

So where¡¯s the road to take us back

And how did we forget what we believed



If I can¡¯t have you

And if the love has gone

And if you just can¡¯t find it in yourself to carry on

And if you had to leave

And take my life forever

Cuz I would never be with anybody else

If I can¡¯t have you



Don¡¯t look back on yesterday

Cuz the time has been and gone

Think of what tomorrow holds

Without you it feels so wrong

I can¡¯t carry on



If I can¡¯t have you

And if the love has gone

And if you just can¡¯t find it in yourself to carry on

And if you had to leave

And take my life forever

Cuz I would never be with anybody else

If I can¡¯t have you

Oh no

If I can¡¯t have you
