[Intro] This is one of my favorite Alicia Keys songs [Verse 1] Some people live for the fortune Some people live just for the fame Some people live for the power Some people live just to play the game Some people think that the physical things define what's within But I've been there before, and that life's a bore So full of the superficial [Chorus] Some people want it all And I don't want nothing at all If it ain't you, baby If I ain't got you, babe Some people bought diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you Oh [Verse 2] Some people search for the fountain That promises forever young Some people need three dozen roses ‘Cause that's the only way to prove you love them, yeah So hand me the world on a silver platter
Oh, what would it be With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for, for me [Chorus] Some people want it all 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 Oh, whoa Some people want it all But I don't want nothing at all, no If it ain't you, baby If I ain't gotcha, baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you Oh [Verse 3] Nothing in this whole wide world Don't mean a thing If I ain't got you with me, yeah Oh No, nothing in this whole wide world Don't mean a thing If I ain't got you with me Oh [Outro] Thank you so much
