I Who Have Nothing
Luther Vandross

I who have nothing

Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller, Mogol and Carlo Donida

(album: power of love - 1991)


Duet with Martha Wash


(Luther)

I, I who have nothing

I, I who have no one

Adore you, and want you so

I'm just a no one

With nothing to give you

But Ooh, I love you


(Martha)

She, she buys you diamonds

Say they're bright, they are bright sparkling diamonds

But believe me, boy, Ooo boy, hear what I say

She could give you the world

But she'll never love you the way

That I love you, baby


Bridge:

(Both) You can go any place you want

(Luther) To fancy clubs and restaurants

(Both) But I can only watch you with her

(Martha) My nose pressed up against the window pane

(Luther) The window pane

(Both) Ooo Yeah... Yeah


Saxophone Solo


(Both) I

(Martha) Who have nothing

(Luther) Nothing

(Both) I

(Luther) Who have no one

(Luther) Must watch you

(Martha) I will watch you, baby

(Luther) Go passing by

(Martha) But you don't see me

(Luther) Wrapped in the arms of

(Both) Wrapped in the arms of somebody else

(Luther) When darling it's I

(Martha) Who

(Luther) Really loves you, baby

(Martha) Really loves you, baby

(Luther) I'm the one

(Martha) I'm the one, I'm the one


(Both)

I want to be the one that you just can't live without

I want to be the one that you never feel no doubt

I want to be the one that you let give you the lovin'

But, I have nothing

(Martha) Nothing


(Both)

I want to be the one that you always want to be near

I want to say the words that your body and soul need to hear

I want to be the one that you let give you all the lovin'

But I have nothing
