Someone That I Used To Love

Natalie Cole · Anthology [2003]

When I wake up each morning trying to find myself

And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself

Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love



As for me it's getting down to the last unspoken part

When you must begin to ease the pain of a broken heart

Tell me why should I even care if I have to lose your love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love



Yet it wasn't enough for you

All the love I had to give

I did my best to keep you satisfied

I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried



And if ever our paths should cross again

Well, you won't find me being the one to get lost again

Once I had so much to give but you just refused my love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love



I did my best to keep you satisfied

I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried



When I wake up each morning trying to find myself

And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself

Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love



Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love
