I Lost It

I had a hundred dollar ring in my hand

So weak and tired I could barely stand

From bein' up all night, prayin' she'd say yes

So with a hopefull heart I hit one knee

With a tear in her eye she looked at me

It was the moment of truth, I was scared to death.

My life hung on what that tear meant

Then she smiled at me

And I lost it.



No one can make me cry, make me laugh

Make me smile or drive me mad like she does

It's like a curse that is the cure

Better or worse one thing's for sure

It's real love and I don't know what I'd do

If I lost it.



Well, the honeymoon ended and life began

Jobs and bills, losing touch with friends

And that appartment got smaller everyday

Then one night the walls finally closed in

I came home late, She said, ''Where've you been?

You used to call and tell me you were on your way.''

She said, ''If this is how it's gonna be, then I quit.''

Then she walked out the door

I lost it.



No one can make me cry, make me laugh

Make me smile or drive me mad like she does

It's like the curse that is the cure

Better or worse one thing's for sure

It's real love and I don't know what I'd do

If I lost it.

I picked myself up off the floor

She walked back through the door

We made love like it was the first time.



No one can make me cry, make me laugh

Make me smile or drive me mad like she does

It's like the curse that is the cure

Better or worse one thing's for sure

It's real love and I don't know what I'd do

If I lost it.



Oooh, if I lost you.



I don't wanna lose it...
