Mary J. Blige - The Love I Never Had lyrics
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
