On the train ride to Paris   Or from sunny Barcelona   We rose up through the mountains   As the sun started setting      And the sea came out below us   As we rode through a village   We passed ten feet from a little porch   Where a man was serving dinner      And our window was open   And we could hear them laughing      I'm never gonna give you up   What do you got if you ain't got love?   If you ain't got love   What do you got if you ain't got love?      At nine in the morning   After nine months of waiting   You were born and I saw your face   And you looked up at me      But before I could hold you   The doctors raced you from me   They told me that you might not live   Your heart was not healthy      And with wires coming from you   I sat beside you      I'm never gonna give you up   What do you got if you ain't got love?   If you ain't got love   What do you got if you ain't got love?      Someday, someday soon   You and I will both be gone   And lately, I can't help but think   That the love we feel will live on      At a little wooden cabin   Up in northern Minnesota   We ran together down to the dock   And you jumped right off it      And from out in the water   You called me to join you   And I said, "Baby, I cannot swim   If I jump, I'll surely drown you"      You said, "Life has no limit   If you're not afraid to get in it"   And oh, baby, I jumped to you   Since then there's nothing I can't do      I'm never gonna give you up   What do you got if you ain't got love?   If you ain't got love   What do you got if you ain't got love?      Someday, someday soon   You and I will both be gone   But lately, I can't help but think   That the love we feel will live on
