Lyrics for Song: I Ain't Got The Love Of The One I Love
Lyrics for Album: This Is The Story: The '70s Albums, Vol.1 - 1970-1973 [2006]
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
I sit and cry, I'll tell you why
I lost my love
I swear I just can't believe how he could walk out on me
My mind's in a daze to think that he walked away
I'll never understand with all the love I gave that man
How he could close the door on me and say goodbye
and not a single tear fell form his eye?
I gave all I had and that was driving me mad
I lay in my bed and count the tears that I shed
I'll go through every day just like a child who lost his way
My life has lost its meaning since he said goodbye
And I just might as well lay down and die
[Chorus:]
I ain't got the love of the one I love (baby)
I ain't got the love of the one I love (baby)
I ain't got the love of the one...I love...
The look in his eye were hiding all of his lies
Why just yesterday I thought I'm sure he would say
He only wanted me, instead he wanted to be free
And I know that he's already seeing someone else
And I'm just not there talking to myself
[Chorus]
I can't go on another day (I can't go on another day)
You might as well take my life away
I sit and cry, I'll tell you why
I lost my love
And now I cannot disguise all the tears in my eyes
I just can't conceal how brokenhearted I feel
There ain't no melody that can do anything for me
'Cause how can I be happy with the one I love
but never had to feel the love for me?
[Repeat Chorus & fade]
