Mando Diao - If I Don't Have You lyrics

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to get it on?
It's been a long cold war in a lonely cell
But, I'm still hanging on

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to breathe again?
In this lonely cell I will wait for you
Till my time has come

One life, one second, one change
One film, I've got you gone like that
Life's changed, I know how it goes
If it turns, they will not be the same
I'm forever fallin' in
Ain't no one before for you
I didn't know love at all
Till I physically touched you
How can I just throw you away?
My God, I'm insane
I let you run away for good

Now how am I supposed to get it all?
It's been five years runnin' scare
Weight upon my soul, oh

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to get it on?
It's been a long cold war in a lonely cell
But, I'm still hanging on

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to breathe again?
In this lonely cell I will wait for you
Till my time has come

I tried to live here for a while
Picture you dead, with another guy
But where you go I will follow your footsteps
Through eternal flame

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to get it on?
It's been a long cold war in a lonely cell
But, I'm still hanging on

If I don't have you
Then how am I supposed to breathe again?
In this lonely cell I will wait for you
Till my time has come

(If I don't have you)
