Lyrics

When you went away I cried for so long
I wanted you to stay but, but that was all wrong
The pain you left my behind has become a part, part of me, uh
And it's burned that hole where my love used to be
But it's not losing you that's got me down so low
I just can't find another man to take your place
And I know, I know I love you but that wasn't good enough
We both fell apart, yeah, we fell apart when the going got real rough
I've learned how to give now, I learned how to give
But what good, what good does it do
But no, but no, but no one, no one can touch me like you used to do (ooh)
But it's not losing you that's got me down so low
I just can't find another man to take your place
And I know, and I know your opinion (ooh, ooh)
Oh, I know your opinion of me isn't good (ooh)
Please, please, please try to understand that I'd change, I'd change if I could (ooh, ooh)
And oh, this coldness inside of me (ooh)
This coldness inside of me, lord it's starting to build (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And a woman isn't a woman, nah, not until, until she's fulfilled (ooh, ooh)
But it's not, it's not losing you, yeah
That's got me down, that's got me down so low (down so low)
I just can't find another man to take your place (ooh)
I know no one can
