If Not For You

If anything I am or hope to be If any compliments are paid to me If any praises I receive for anything that I achieve I'll never rightfully belong to you. For when I wonder you convinced me that I could Knowing you depended on me proved I should And in your mind you never doubted that I would But what would I do (what would I do) if not for you. I see admiration in your eyes And I believe you think I hung the moon And if I fail like other men or find the will to try again But anything I am begins with you. For when I wonder you convinced me that I could Knowing you depended on me proved I should And in your mind you never doubted that I would But what would I do (what would I do) if nor for you. What would I do (what would I do) if nor for you --- If Not for You - George Jones
