No Ordinary Love
Deftones · B-Sides & Rarities [2005]
I gave you more than I could give
Gave you love
I gave you all that I had inside
and you took my love
You took my love
Didn't I tell you what I believe
Did somebody say that
A love like ours won't last
Didn't I give you all that I got to
Give, babe
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I Gave you love
I gave you all that I had inside
And you took my love
You took my love
I keep tryin'
I keep tryin' for you
There's nothin' like you and I
Baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
When you came my way
You brightened every day
With your sweet smile
Didn't I tell you what I believe
Did somebody say that
A love like ours won't last
Didn't I give you all that I got to
Give, baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
I keep tryin'
I keep tryin'
I keep tryin' for you
There's nothin' like you and I
Baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
Keep cryin' for you
Keep tryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep tryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep tryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
Keep tryin' for you
Keep cryin' for you
