If Not For You lyrics
Editor’s note - this could be the first time the lyrics to an Olivia hit were published? Here she is sharing the honour with Bob Dylan.
If Not For You
Recorded on Pye by OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN and on CBS by BOB DYLAN
If not for you
Babe I couldn’t even find the door
I couldn’t even see the floor
I’d be sad and blue
If not for you
If not for you
Babe the night would see me wide awake
The day would surely have to break
It would not be new If not for you
Chorus
If not for you
my sky would fall
Rain would gather too
Without your love
I’d be nowhere at all
I’d be lost
if not for you
If not for you
The winter would hold no spring
You couldn’t hear a robin sing
I just wouldn’t have a clue
If not for you
Chorus repeat
Repeat last verse
If not for you
