I Used to Love Him
Verse 1:
As I look at what I've done
The type of life that I've lived
How many things I pray the father will forgive
One situation
Involved a young man
He was the ocean
And I was the sand
He stole my heart
Like a thief in the night
Dulled my senses
And blurried my sight
Chorus:
I used to love him, now I don't
Now I don't, I used to love him, now I don't
Now I don't
Verse 2:
I chose the road of passion and pain
Sacrificed too much
And waited in vain
Gave up my power
Ceased being Queen
Addicted to love like the drug of a fiend
Torn and confused
Wasted and used
Reached the crossroads which path would I choose
Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated
For something to happen that just wasn't fated
Thought what I wanted was something I needed
When momma said no, then I just should have heeded
Misled, I bled till the poison was gone
And out of the darkness arrived the sweet dawn
Chorus
Verse 3:
Father you saved me and you showed me that life
Was much more than being some foolish man's wife
Showed me that love was respect and devotion
Greater than planets and deeper than any ocean
See my soul was weary
But now it's replenished
Content because that part of my life is finished
I see him sometimes and the look in his eyes
Is one of a man whose lost treasures untold
But my heart is gold, see, I took back my soul
And totally let my creator control
The life which was his
The life which was his
To begin with
Chorus (repeat to end)
