Intro
(verse 1)
Baby, how'd we wind up, This far apart,
Usin' words as weapo ns, Like daggers to our hearts,
This stand-off of indifference, isn't solving anything.
But baby, I've been thinkin ', bout what I stand to lose,
(bridge)
I can live without bein ' right,
So if I have t o choose,
(chorus)
I can't live without your love,
I can't live without your touch,
The pride I stand to gain isn't worth the pain,
I can't face another day,
An' I don't care who's to blame,
If this is what it takes, I'll be the one t o break,
I'm not givin' up,
Can't live without you r,
(verse 2)
Footsteps down the hallway.
The strength you have within.
How much you say iun silence, yeah.
Your breath upon my skin.
Don't know who I am without you.
Just like the very air I breathe.
(chorus)
I can't live without your love,
I can't live without your touch,
The pride I stand to gain isn't worth the pain,
I can't face another day,
An' I don't care who's to blame,
If this is what it takes, I'll be the one t o break,
I'm not givin' up,
Can't live without you r,
(Lead chords - - - 2x's )
(verse 3)
As we sit here in the quiet,
There's a poundin' in my head.
I feel as the weight,
Of a thousand angry words between us,
The bitter things we've said,
So I'm reachin' out to you tonight,
I don't care who's wrong an' baby,
I don't care who's right.
We've come too far to let this slip away now,
I'm askin' you, I'm tellin' you, I'm beggin' you,
(chorus)
I can't live without your love,
I can't live without your touch,
The pride I stand to gain isn't worth the pain,
I can't face another day,
An' I don't care who's to blame,
If this is what it takes, I'll be the one t o break,
I'm not givin' up,
Can't live without your,
(repeat chorus)
love,
I can't live without your lov e.
I need you, baby ,
Ooooh, yeah. I can't live, c'm on on, baby,
C'mon on, baby.
