英國非裔歌姬[雪莉貝西]──流行抒情曲──戲劇性的[I (Who Have Nothing)/我(一無所有)]
I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Adore you and want you so
Im just a no one, with nothing to give you but oh
I love you
You, you buy her diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But believe me, dear, when I say
That she can give you the world
But shell never love you the way
I love you
You can take her any place she wants
To fancy clubs and restaurants
But I can only watch you with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Must watch you, go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
Darling it is I
Who loves you
