If It Weren't for You

If It Weren't for You - Ella Fitzgerald

If it weren't for you

Oh how worthless I'd be

If it weren't for you

They'd have to pity poor me

My heart was upside down and sinking

Had no reason to climb

Till you happened to happen along

Right in the nick of time

If it weren't for you

I'd be getting nowhere

Now instead I can view

The lovely future we'll share

I don't know how I'd go on living

Living the way I do

I'd be only existing

If it weren't for you

I don't know how I'd go on living

Living the way I do

I'd be only existing

If it weren't for you

I don't know how I'd make it

I just couldn't take it

If it weren't for you

If it weren't for you
