If I Can't Be With You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't wanna be famous
I don't wanna if I can't be with you
Everything I eat is tasteless
Everything I see don't compare to you
Paris, monaco, and vegas
I'd rather stay with you
If I had to choose
Baby you're the greatest
And I got everything to lose
And I just wanna be with you
Yeah, I can never get enough
Baby I'd give it all up up
I'd give it all up, if I can't be with you
All of this stuff, sucks
Yeah, all of it sucks, if I can't be with you
And, no oscar, no grammy, no mansion in Miami
The sun don't shine, the sky ain't blue
If I can't be with you
I can sail around the whole world
Still won't find a place
As beautiful as you girl
And really who's got time to waste
I can't even see a future
Without you in it color starts to fade
Ain't no way I'm gonna lose ya
Nobody in the world could ever take your place
You're the kind you can't replace
Yeah, I can never get enough
Baby I'd give it all up up
I'd give it all up, if I can't be with you
All of this stuff, sucks
Yeah, all of it sucks, if I can't be with you
And, no oscar, no grammy, no mansion in Miami
The sun don't shine, the sky ain't blue
If I can't be with you
If I can't be with you
If I can't be with you
(If I can't be with you) oh, if I can't be with you
(If I can't be with you) oh, all of this sucks
If I can't be with you
All of this stuff, sucks
Yeah, all of it sucks, if I can't be with you
And, no oscar, no grammy, no mansion in Miami
The sun don't shine, the sky ain't blue
If I can't be with you
If I can't be with you
If I can't be with you
With you
