Story behind the song
"Since I Don't Have You" is a song by the doo-wop group The Skyliners. Released in 1958, the single reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and also the top five of the R&B chart. The song, highlighted by a powerful vocal by lead singer Jimmy Beaumont and the counterpoint between his falsetto and Janet Vogel's soprano on the final chorus, is considered by oldies fans to be one of the best "heartbreak" ballads ever recorded, and a classic of pre-Beatles rock and roll, and is still frequently played on the radio. The song was featured in the films American Graffiti, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, Lethal Weapon 2, and Mischief, and television INVALID s such as Happy Days.
Lyrics
I don't have plans and schemes, And I don't have hopes and dreams, I-I-I don't have anything Since I don't have you. I don't have fond desires, And I don't have happy hours, I-I-I don't have anything Since I don't have you. I don't have happiness, and I guess I never will again. When you walked out on me, In walked old misery, And he's been here since then. I don't have love to share, And I don't have one who cares. I-I-I don't have anything Since--I don't--have-- You, you, you, you You, you, you, you You, you, you, you (Yo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ou)
