"Se non avessi più te" () is a 1965 Italian song composed by Franco Migliacci (lyrics) Luis Bacalov and Bruno Zambrini (music) and performed by Gianni Morandi.
Background The song was runner-up at the 1965 edition of the Cantagiro festival; it was in the lead for all stages of the contest but was eventually overtaken by Rita Pavone with "Lui" in the final stage at Fiuggi, in what became known as the "Fiuggi blitz". The song was a major success, selling over 320,000 copies as of August 1965. It has been described as "a non-obvious melody rich in bel canto reminiscences", which Morandi performed "with great naturalness and without overdoing it".
The song was adapted into a musicarello film with the same title, directed by Ettore Maria Fizzarotti and starring the same Morandi and his future wife Laura Efrikian.
