I opened my book of friends and all the pages were blank I wrote a check they said was drawn on an unknown bank Is what you said about me really true? Am I a nothing when I don't have you? I went to work but my parking spot had a new name card I went back home and some guy said to get out of his yard Say it again but this time swear it's true Am I a nothing when I don't have you? The needle's in my arm but the dope's in someone else's vein I showed my ID to get in the club and he said "you're not Jane" Now I'm wondering how can this be true Am I a nothing when I don't have you? I called me and my answering machine used another voice I want to be something but I don't have another choice My mind's a spinning saying it's not true Am I a nothing when I don't have you? Torn clothes and beard in mirror shows some other face Even my familiar city streets look like some other place I just can't admit that what you said was true Am I a nothing when I don't have you? I read my weekly horoscope it said I have no sign The parking lot attendant said the car I drive ain't mine I guess you're right what you said was true I am just a nothing when I don't have you But one thing you can't know babe is I've been here before And you're not the first or last to walk right out that door I'm coming back up and on the rise it's true Cause I got me and thank God I ain't got you Cause I got me and thank God I ain't got you
