Lyrics
I, I who have nothing
And I, I who have no one
Adore you and want you so
I'm just a no one with nothing to give you
But oh, I love you, hey, baby (hey, baby), ooh
She, she buys you diamonds
Said they're bright (bright), they are bright sparkling diamonds (yeah-yeah)
But believe me, boy (ooh, boy), hear what I say
She could give you the world, but she'll never love you
The way that I love you, baby (yeah-yeah)
You can go any place you want
To fancy clubs and restaurants (ooh)
But I can only watch you with her
My nose pressed up against (yeah) the window pane
The window pane, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
I, I who have nothing (nothing)
I, I who have no one (no one)
Must watch you (I will watch you, baby) go passing by
But you don't see me wrapped in the arms of
Somebody else when, darling, it's I who (hey, baby)
Really loves you, baby (really loves you, baby)
I'm the one (I'm the one, I'm the one), yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah
I wanna be the one that you just can't live without
I wanna be the one that you never feel no doubt
I wanna be the one that you let give you the lovin'
But I have nothing (nothing), ooh, yeah (ooh, yeah), yeah
I wanna be the one that you always want to be near
I wanna say the words that your body and soul need to hear
I wanna be the one that you let give you all the lovin'
But I have nothing (nothing) ooh, nothing (ooh)
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
