How It Used To Be - Big Al Davies

How It Used To Be Lyrics

I ain't gonna lie, I can't even count the days
Or the many nights I tried living here alone
A heart full of pride, you couldn't see the enemy was me
I was blind and thought my second chance was goneA ship without a sail, battered by a raging sea
Taking any love I can to try and stop the rain
While waiting to exhale, I finally got on my knees
I know it's been a long time, do You still remember my name?Can I go back in time? Can I have another try?
But I can't change yesterdayOh, I can't take another day without You
Cause this heart don't beat the same without You
I forgot who I was, got caught up in this world
Jesus, I apologizeI should've lost my mind without You
Not another sleepless night without You, Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to beI try and try to keep my mind on You
But trouble keeps calling me
Every time a wound heals
Something else takes the healing awayBut even when I've gone too far
You don't even call my name

Mama said, "If you love let it go
And if it comes back then it's back to stay"You already know I belong to only You
I run to Your arms and sayOh, I can't take another day without You
Cause this heart don't beat the same without You
I forgot who I was, got caught up in this world
Jesus, I apologizeI should've lost my mind without You
Not another sleepless night without You, Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking pleaseNever knew a life so cold
Thought that things could fulfill my soul
Tried to find love on my own
It was hard to admit I was wrongNo money, no cars, no fame, no lies, no games
My life is takenNow we've come to the break
Tell me what You gonna say, I know
I give my life right, but You know
You ain't promised tonight, baby girlWithout You, I can't breathe
Without You, I can't exist
Without You, this world ain't got nothing for me
I'm coming homeOh, I can't take another day without You
Cause this heart don't beat the same without You
I forgot who I was, got caught up in this world
Jesus, I apologizeI should've lost my mind without You
Not another sleepless night without You, Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking pleaseOh, I can't take another day without You
Cause this heart don't beat the same without You
I forgot who I was, got caught up in this world
Jesus, I apologizeI should've lost my mind without You
Not another sleepless night without You, Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to be
Make us how we used to be
