I'm the keeper of your heart

I keep the flame when we're apart

I'm the lover in your arms

Or a baby soft and warm



I'm a hero in your eyes

I'm a comfort when you cry

When you hurt me I'm your fool

But I'm nothin' without you



(CHORUS)



No I'm nothin' without you

It don't matter what I do

If I win or if I lose

Sweetheart I'm nothin' without you



I'm a beacon in the night

To show the way until it's light

I'm a stumbler in the dark

When I can't say what's in my heart



I'm a poet just the same

Every time I speak your name

I'm just a shadow when I'm blue

But I'm nothin' without you



(CHORUS)
