I Who Have Nothing

Ben E. King

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, oh

I love you



He, he buys you diamonds

Bright, sparkling diamonds

But, believe me, dear, when I say

That he can give you the world but he'll never love the way

I love you



He can take you any place he wants

To fancy clubs and restaurants

But I can only watch you with

My nose pressed up against the window pane



I, I who have nothing

I, I who have no one

Must watch you go dancing by

Wrapped in the arms of somebody else when, darling, it's I

Who loves you



I love you

I love you

I love you
