Verse 1 I see you standin’ there
 With your back to me like you don’t care You got things, fancy clothes
 But with all that shit ya still want more Lemme take off your things 
Lemme see straight to that human being ‘Cause what ya have is inside 
Don’t you ever ask yourself Chorus 1 What if there’s a time when you got nothin’, do you hide against the wall? 
Or do you have somethin’? Underneath it all When you got nothin’, don’t you feel so small? When you got nothin’, you see through it all Verse 2 I’ve been lost; oh I’ve been down
 But somehow I kept my feet on the ground ‘Cause I’ve been strong, I’ve been fine 
I’ve seen truths and lies too many times But I get up, oh I keep goin’ 
I stay strong, and I keep lovin’
 And you have things, and you are fine Don’t you every ask yourself Chorus 2 What if there’s a time when you got nothin’, do you hide against the wall? 
Or do you do somethin’? With everything you’ve got ‘Cause if you got somethin’, sometimes you feel so strong But when you got nothin’, you see through it all
 When you got nothin’, do you hide against the wall? 
Or do you have somethin’? Underneath it all 
When you got nothin’, don’t you feel so small? 
When you got nothin’, you see through it all
 When you got nothin’, you see through it all Bridge Nothin’? Somethin’? Nothin’? Nothin’? x5 Final Chorus Do you hide against the wall? 
Or do you have somethin’? Underneath it all When you got nothin’, don’t you feel so small? When you got nothin’, you see through it all When you got nothin’, you see through it all Outro When you got nothin’, do you hide against the wall? Or do you have somethin’, underneath it all?

Verse 1 I gotta whole lotta money, but I ain’t got you I gotta basket full’a lemons, but I ain’t got nothin’ A plane takes me wherever I go I get a champagne bottle in my hotel room But I ain’t got you I gotta whole lotta money, but I ain’t got you But I’m pretty sure that when I left you I had nothin’ Don’t know where I had to go Yeah, I guess I always thought that I would come back soon Still ain’t got you Prechorus I treated your love like the gambler I am I bet it all on nothin’, hopin’ ta win You’re my desire, baby You are the only thing true Chorus (half time) But I ain’t got you No, I ain’t got you Verse 2 I gotta whole lotta money, but I ain’t got you I gotta million little people always runnin’ around me No peace wherever I go, everybody says I hope to see you soon But I never see you I gotta whole lotta money, but I ain’t got you These people always tell me that I need to get past it It just takes time, telling me they know what I am going through But they never lost you Prechorus I treated your love like the gambler I am I bet all on nothin’, hopin’ ta win You’re my desire, baby You are the only thing true Chorus (half time) But I ain’t got you No, I ain’t got you Outro I gotta whole lotta money, but I ain’t got you I gotta basket full of lemons, but I ain’t got nothin’

Verse 1 Been stuck on my love life lately Been feelin’ so crazy If feelings flow like water Water falls every day here Been checkin’ my watch, and I’m feelin’ like maybe I think I want ya But I can’t find you lately Prechorus Ooohh, you been bringin’ my whole world down I’ve been thinkin’ of you In my mind it goes ‘round and ‘round and ‘round The whole day through You’ll be on my mind, ohh, time will haunt you I want you Chorus Ya bleed on the saddle And I know what you’re fightin’ for Ya bleed on the saddle You’re everything I wanted and more (Ya bleed on the saddle, the saddle, [the saddle], woah) More (Ya bleed on the saddle, the saddle, woah) Verse 2 Been stuck on my love life lately Was hopin’ you’d save me And I know you’re cautious But I am praying Been checkin’ my watch, and I’ve been waiting There ain’t no stoppin’ My heart from cavin’ Prechorus Ooohh, you been bringin’ my whole world down I’ve been thinkin’ of you In my mind it goes ‘round and ‘round and ‘round The whole day through You’ve be on my mind, ohh, time will haunt you I want you Chorus Ya bleed on the saddle And I know what you’re fightin’ for Ya bleed on the saddle You’re everything I wanted and more (Ya bleed on the saddle, the saddle, the saddle) More (Ya bleed on the saddle, the saddle)

Hook Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I’ve been thinkin’ of Oh, if it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I can think If it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Rap Bow down, lean back You don’t seem to notice Give a little, get a little back on the track Your love, now Taylor, I’ll hold it I’ma take you and go with it Fix it and risk it until I wish I had it sooner ‘cause you know that I been missin’ it My mind is racin’ ‘Cause the taste of your lips on mine was crazy And it may be a wish, but I wish that ya did your man and call me, baby You know you’re all I’m thinkin’ But I can’t blame you for breakin’ me down so much it touches enough to drive me crazy Just sayin’ Hook Ya got me here dreamin’ of love (mhm) You’re all that I’ve been thinkin’ of Oh, if it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I can think If it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Bridge In my car, and when I walk You are all I’m thinkin’ of It’s nothin’, it’s nothin’, it’s nothin’ I keep tellin’ myself, but it’s It’s never gonna stop And now every other love Is nothin’, is nothin’, is nothin’ Since I met you Hook Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I’ve been thinkin’ of Oh, if it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I can think If it grows stronger I won’t last much longer Outro Ya got me here dreamin’ of love You’re all that I’ve been thinkin’ of (if it grows stronger)
