When my world is turning When it's turning upside down When all I see is rain When I think the night won't end I just think of you And I can see the sun again Wherever would I be without you, tell me If I didn't have you Whatever would I do now, baby Whatever would I be without you I'd be nowhere, I'd be nowhere When the dreams I dream All seem a million miles away When I'm sure, I'll never win When it's looking like I've left my faith I just look at you baby And I got reason to believe again Wherever would I be without you, tell me If I didn't have you Whatever would I do now, baby Whatever would I be without you Without you to love me I'd just be wasting time And goin' out of my mind Wherever would I be without you, tell me If I didn't have you Whatever would I do now, baby Whatever would I be without you Wherever would I be without you, tell me If I didn't have you Whatever would I do now, baby Whatever would I be without you Wherever would I be without you, tell me If I didn't have you Whatever would I do now, baby Whatever would I be without you
