Lovin' U Still

[Verse 1:]
Fell in love, and everything that I wanted
What a life for me...
Now a thing don't mean a thing,
since we've parted
Meant the world to me...
And though my heart's still beatin',
when will i breathe again
And when will someone wake me from,
this awful dream I'm in
[Chorus:]
If you could see the way I live my life
If you could see the way I cry at night
If you could understand the reasons why
That I'm loving you still...
If you could hear me when I call your name
You gotta know it's driving me insane
You know I'll never ever love again
'Cause I'm loving you still
[Verse 2:]
I had someone watch over me, my protector
Kept me safe and warm
I had someone makin' love to me,
I thought forever
But forever now is gone..
So i spend my days pretending,
I spend my nights alone
I've never missed somebody so,
I've never loved so strong
[Repeat chorus]
[Bridge:]
And now that you've gone away
Lord knows that I must pray
That we will meet again
But until then...
[Repeat chorus/Out]
Fell in love, and everything that I wanted
What a life for me...
Now a thing don't mean a thing,
since we've parted
Meant the world to me...
And though my heart's still beatin',
when will i breathe again
And when will someone wake me from,
this awful dream I'm in
[Chorus:]
If you could see the way I live my life
If you could see the way I cry at night
If you could understand the reasons why
That I'm loving you still...
If you could hear me when I call your name
You gotta know it's driving me insane
You know I'll never ever love again
'Cause I'm loving you still
[Verse 2:]
I had someone watch over me, my protector
Kept me safe and warm
I had someone makin' love to me,
I thought forever
But forever now is gone..
So i spend my days pretending,
I spend my nights alone
I've never missed somebody so,
I've never loved so strong
[Repeat chorus]
[Bridge:]
And now that you've gone away
Lord knows that I must pray
That we will meet again
But until then...
