The Love I Never Had

You know sometimes
There come a time in your life
When you love something
You got to let it go
And even though
You might feel there's still something there
You have to wake up
Stop leaving in a dream
Cause it's over now
You got to think about you

I have always wondered why
Why i can't live without you babe
And i'm longing to be your lady
I understand that you are leaving
Please don't live here without me baby
Cause i think i might go insane

1 - cause everybody needs someone to love
And i know that it's true
And i know that it's you
I don't understand
Why you can't be my man
So i better wake up
Stop living in a dream
Yes i better wake up
Cause i can't lose the love i never had
Yeah i better wake up
As painful as it seems
Yes i better wake up
I can not lose the love i never had

Every time i close my eyes
I see visions of you and i
Sharing love of a special kind
I got to laugh to keep from crying
To hide all the pain inside
Cause i can't get you off my mind

Repeat 1

Oh, it made me realize
I don't want to live apart
But you don't know how hard i tried
What do i have to lose?
Oh i think a little bit more than you
And i doubt that you will see things
Clearly before it's too late

Repeat 1

Never had, never had, never had
Break it down, break it down

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
All the times i've cried
It made me realize
That i was holding on to a lie
But you don't know how hard i tried
To make sure you were satisfy yeah
Cause i thought you were only mine
And i doubt you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, too late, too late
I don't understand why you can't be my man
Oh everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody yeah
Oh, do do do...
Baby, baby, baby i can't live with you
And i doubt you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, yeah
Oh you hurt me so, you hurt me so
Love that i that i never had
I can't lose, i can't lose
I can not lose, i can not lose
Oh i can't lose a love i never had
