Mason Jennings - If You Ain't Got Love lyrics

On the train ride to Paris Or from sunny Barcelona We rose up through the mountains As the sun started setting And the sea came out below us As we rode through a village We pa**ed ten feet from a little porch Where a man was serving dinner And our window was open And we could hear them laughing I'm never gonna give you up What do you got if you ain't got love? If you ain't got love What do you got if you ain't got love? At nine in the morning After nine months of waiting You were born and I saw your face And you looked up at me But before I could hold you The doctors raced you from me They told me that you might not live Your heart was not healthy And with wires coming from you I sat beside you I'm never gonna give you up What do you got if you ain't got love? If you ain't got love What do you got if you ain't got love? Someday, someday soon You and I will both be gone And lately, I can't help but think That the love we feel will live on At a little wooden cabin Up in northern Minnesota We ran together down to the dock And you jumped right off it And from out in the water You called me to join you And I said, "Baby, I cannot swim If I jump, I'll surely drown you" You said, "Life has no limit If you're not afraid to get in it" And oh, baby, I jumped to you Since then there's nothing I can't do I'm never gonna give you up What do you got if you ain't got love? If you ain't got love What do you got if you ain't got love? Someday, someday soon You and I will both be gone But lately, I can't help but think That the love we feel will live on
