No one to share, no one who truly cares for me

余無良人 牽掛憐惜

If I aint got you with me baby

若無君兮 余無念兮

Nothing in this whole wide world dont mean a thing

浩渺斯世 滄海微粒

If I aint got you with me baby

若無君兮 余何戀兮

對於ALICIA KEYS的FANS來說，這首歌曲的確是心中無法逾越的高峰。將這首歌的詞和曲分開來欣賞也是一種享受。歌詞就是一首完整的詩，將愛情的想法表達的淋漓盡致，將一切世俗的物質排除在外。或許一些人認為歌詞太過童話，也許愛情的確無法孤身獨立在金錢、權利、名譽之外。不過這種想法是難能可貴的，即使我們無法做到，我們也應該去欣賞並爭取，畢竟真愛無價。
