"I Have Nothing" is a song by American singer Whitney Houston, released as the third single from The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album (1992) on February 20, 1993, by Arista Records. The song was written by David Foster and Linda Thompson, and produced by Foster. The song is a richly orchestrated power ballad about deep love and the confusion that happens to lovers because of the different perceptions of women and men when it comes to commitment to one's lover. The music video was directed by S. A. Baron and shows Houston performing the song to an audience in a dining room hall. The video is inter-cut with scenes from the film (The Bodyguard).
