I (Who Have Nothing) - Roberta Flack, Donny Hathaway

I, I who have nothing

And 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

Believe me when I say

He can give you the world

But he’ll never love you

The way

I love you

You can go any place you want

To fancy clubs and restaurants

But I can only watch you

With my nose pressed

Up against the window pane

Oh, I

I who have nothing

And I

I who have no one

Must watch you go

Passing by

Wrapped in the arms

Of someone else

When, darling

It is I

Who loves you

Oh…
