Origineel
[Verse 1 – Maroon 5]
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what’s within
And I’ve been there before
But that life’s a bore
So full of the superficial
[Chorus – Maroon 5]
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, Yeah
[Verse 2 – Maroon 5]
Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that’s the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me
[Chorus – Maroon 5]
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah
[Outro – Maroon 5]
If I ain’t got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing
If I ain’t got you with me baby
Vertaling
[Verse 1 – Maroon 5]
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Sommige mensen leven voor de macht, ja
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
bepalen wat van binnen zit
En ik ben daar eerder geweest
Maar dat het leven saai is
So full of the superficial
[refrein – Maroon 5]
Sommige mensen willen alles
Maar ik wil helemaal niets
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Sommige mensen willen diamanten ringen
Sommigen willen gewoon alles
Maar alles betekent niets
If I ain’t got you, Yeah
[Verse 2 – Maroon 5]
Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
En dat is de enige manier om te bewijzen dat je van ze houdt
Geef me de wereld op een presenteerblaadje
En wat voor goeds zou het zijn
Met niemand om te delen
With no one who truly cares for me
[refrein – Maroon 5]
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Sommigen willen gewoon alles
Maar alles betekent niets
Als ik jou niet heb, jou, jou
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Sommigen willen gewoon alles
Maar alles betekent niets
If I ain’t got you, yeah
[Outro – Maroon 5]
If I ain’t got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing
If I ain’t got you with me baby
