Gerald Levert - Taking Everything lyrics

Never thought you bring me so much pain

Lord knows I tried to keep you happy girl

In ever way

Out on the road doing my thang trying to

Keep you laced

Trying to keep a smile upon your face girl

Was all my happiness in vain

Or did I place in you a little too much faith

Now nothing but memories

Never though that this would be the price i

Had to pay

Chorus

You took my heart you took my car you took

My crib

Got the nerves to take my kids

Got the nerves to take my kids

You took my love and my life

Girl you took my soul

Taking everything from me

Taking everything from me

You took my heart girl you took my car

And you took my crib trying to take my kids

Girl you took my love than you took my soul

Taking everything everything everything

Everything everything

And now I'm sitting all alone

Trying to figure out where you and I went

Wrong

You know it makes me wanna cry

Just thinking about it makes me wanna lay

Down and die

For the life of me I don't know how

That you could take for granted and disregard

Our sacred vows

Now nothing but memories

Never though that this would be the price i

Had to pay

Chorus

You took my heat girl you took my cars

Trying to take my crib

Got the nerve to take my kids

Got the nerve to take my kids

And take my love an my life

Girl you took my soul

You've taking everything from me

Taking everything from me

You took my heart my pride

My crib my kids my love my soul

Everything everything everything

Everything everything everything

Now I ain't never been no fool

I've always tried to keep my cool

I was faithful to you never abuse you or

Use you

Even though sometimes you make me want to

But I love you

You should try to understand girl that i

Was your man

My life was in your hands baby was shinning

Over everything

Now you're gone and I'm just gonna be a

Weekend daddy baby

Can I call you baby or is that just a passing

Thing

Chorus
