I Used to Love Him - Lauryn Hill/Mary J. Blige

作词：DJ Rogers/Lauryn Hill

作曲：DJ Rogers/Lauryn Hill

Now I don

I used to

love him

Now I don

Now I don

As I look at what I done

The type of life that I lived

How many things I pray

the father will forgive

One situation

involved a young man

He was the ocean

and I was the sand

He stole my heart

like a thief in the night

Dulled my senses

and blurred my sight

I used to love him

but now I don

I used to love him

but now I don

I chose a road

of passion and pain

Sacrificed too much

and waited in vain

Gave up my power

ceased being queen

Addicted to love

like the drug of a fiend

Torn and confused

wasted and used

Reached the crossroad

which path would I choose

Stuck and frustrated I waited debated

For something to happen

that just wasn fated

Thought what I wanted

was something I needed

When momma said no

I just should have heeded

Misled I bled till the poison was gone

And out of the darkness

arrived the sweet dawn

I used to love him but now I don

I used to love him but now I don

Father you saved me

and showed me that life

Was much more than being

some foolish man wife

Showed me that love

was respect and devotion

Greater than planets

deeper than any oceans

My soul was weary

but now it replenished

Content because that part

of my life

is finished

I see him sometimes

and the look in his eye

Is one of a man

who lost treasures untold

But my heart is gold

I took back my soul

And totally let my creator control

The life which was his

to begin with

but now I don

I used to love him but now I don

but now I don

I used to love him but now I don

but now I don

I used to love him but now I don

but now I don

I used to love him but now I don

but now I don

I used to love him

but now I don

I used to love him

but now I don

I used to love him

but now I don

I used to love him
