If I Can't Have You Lyrics - Hang Cool Teddy Bear - Meat Loaf

To say it's love would be too simple 

Too obvious 

It's more like a calling, a vocation 

Something I was 

Put on this earth to do 

Now I'm shooting with the stars 

And I'm flying with the angels 

And my heartbeat is a symphony the 

Closer I get to you 

I never saw you comin' till you 

Came and here you are 

I never thought someone 

Would ever dare 

To come this far 

You're up for the resistance 

And I'm strong in my persistence 

And I've never known 

A remedy like ours 

If I can't have you 

If I can't have you 

I would be a river dried up 

Into dust 

I would be imprisoned 

For ever having loved 

If I can't have you 

I don't wanna be me 

Then I would be the same man 

You scraped off the ground 

I'd have to go back bein' 

That broken soul you found 

Those days are in the darkness 

I buried them with hardness 

And I'd have to dig those 

Demons out 

Your life is like anchor that puts 

Me in my place 

No you won't let me sink when 

I'm off losin' my way 

Thank God for your virtue 

And the wisdom in your eye 

Cause somehow you 

Get through on 

All that crazy in my mind 

If I can't have you 

If I can't have you 

I would be a river 

Dried up into dust 

I would be imprisoned for never 

Having loved 

If I can't have you 

I don't wanna be me 

I don't wanna be me 

Why did it take you so long to 

Finally see 

That we had a love 

That you don't find easily 

You broke my heart and the price 

To pay for that 

Is you'll have to live the misery of 

Losing what you had 

If I can't have you 

My words have come to late 

I've already turned that page 

Don't you look at me that way 

Cause you'll pull me back and 

That's the part I hate 

I'll stay trapped inside my hell 

Where it's so hot 

That my walls melt 

And I can hear a promise 

In every lie you said 

You'd never tell 

If I had only told the truth 

Oh I could never trust you to 

You'll survive 

No I will die 

If I can't have you 

If I can't have you 

Then I'm sorry for the things I 

Cost you in the end 

My punishment is more than any 

Man can stand 

I need you in my life 

I can't let go 

Why don't you stay with me 

Tonight 

I feel alone 

Turn off all the lights 

Take me home 

If I can't have you 

If I can't have you 

Then I would be a river 

Dried up into dust 

I would be imprisoned 

For ever having loved 

If I can't have you 

I don't wanna be me 

To say it's love would be too simple
