John McVie - Lost What You Had lyrics

(Lola Thomas)

Well, the word was out about

some new face in town

I heard it didn't take you long to

take her on down

Stealing what you want with both hands

Breaking those hearts of gold into sand

Chorus:

Well ah, the pain from desire

Burned your hands playing with fire

You can't go back, cause it's all gone bad

You got what you wanted, baby

But you lost what you had

You covered me in kisses, the left me in lies

Fooled me with tears that fell from empty eyes

Afraid friends would say you're losing your touch

Afraid of ever needing anybody too much

Repeat chorus

Love can be such a dangerous game

Ah, the foolish things that lovers do

So now you wake up in your empty rooms

Crying baby, baby, what am I to do?

Well, that was then, and this is now

And words can't change what's happened anyhow

The truth's come home with amazing grace

All the pieces have now fallen into place

Repeat chorus

Bye bye baby, bye bye

Cry cry baby, cry cry
