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've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial
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
John:
Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Alicia & John:
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be?
And no one to share
With no one who truly be cares for me
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 ... ;)
John:
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh I'll never know
What makes this man
With all the love
That his heart can stand
Dream of ways
To throw it all away
Alicia & John :
Gravity is working against me
And gravity ( I said ) wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much
Ain't twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
That's gonna send me to my knees
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light ...
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 ...
Some I try to tell You
I said - nothing in the world
Nothing in the world
Shouldn't know me nothing
If I ain't got you with me Baby
If I ain't got you with me Baby
