  • Used to dream of being a millionaire, without a care
    But if I'm seeing my dreams and you aren't there
    'Cause it's over
    That just won't be fair
    Darling
    Rather be a poor woman living on the street
    No food to eat
    'Cause I don't want no pie if I have to cry
    'Cause it's over
    When you said goodbye

    All at once
    I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Now that you're gone
    From afar, seems I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Since you're gone

    Now I see myself through different eyes
    It's no surprise
    Being alone would make you realize
    When it's over
    All in love is fair, I shoulda been there
    I shoulda been there, I shoulda, shoulda

    All at once
    I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Now that you're gone
    From afar, seems I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Since you're gone

    I know I pushed you away
    What can I do that will save our love?
    Take these material things
    They don't mean nothing
    It's you that I want

    All at once
    I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Now that you're gone
    From afar
    Seems I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Since you're gone, I shoulda been there
    I shoulda been there, I shoulda, I shoulda

    All at once
    See, I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Now that you're gone
    From afar
    Seems I had it all
    But it doesn't mean anything
    Since you're gone Writer/s: Alicia Augello-Cook, Kerry Brothers, Jr.
