The Love I Never Had

You know sometimes

There come a time in your life when

You love something, you have to let it go

And even though you might feel there's still something there

You have to wake up, stop livin' in a dream

'Cause it's over now, you got to think about youI 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 leave here without me baby

'Cause I think I might go insane'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

So I better wake up, as painful as it seems

Yes I better wake up, I can not lose the love I never hadEvery time I close my eyes I see visions of you and I

Sharing love of a special kind, oh

I got to laugh to keep from crying, yeah

To hide all the pain inside

'Cause I can't get you off my mind'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

So I better wake up, as painful as it seems

Yes I better wake up, I can not lose the love I never hadOh, 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'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, 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

So I better wake up, as painful as it seems

Yes I better wake up, I can not lose the love I never hadNever had, never had, I never had, never had

Break it down, break it downOhh

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 satisfied yeah

'Cause I thought you were only mine

And I doubt you will see things clearly before it's

Too late, Too late, too lateI 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
