I used to do it for the love a long time ago And all I ever wanted was love I used to love without fear a long time ago And all I ever wanted was love Then somebody came around and tried to hurt me Tried to make me feel like I was unworthy Took pure love and tried to make you dirty Truth was, that he never did deserve me no I had to lose myself So I can love you better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can love you better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can love you better Lose myself in love And that's just the way it is You couldn't tell me I was loved when I needed it When all I ever wanted was love Should've told me just because you were the receiving end But all I ever wanted was love There's something about the selflessness it takes to Give love and the good that it makes you True love can never really forsake you But it took a little while just for me to see I had to lose myself So I can love you better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can love you better Lose myself in love And that's just the way it is I had a paraplegic fear of facing failure And I couldn't love you perfectly with fear in my head So I perilously had to face the danger So I could come back and love you whole instead I love you So I can love you better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So i can love you better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So i can make it better Lose myself in love And that's just the way it is And so it goes that I never meant to hurt you Couldn't stay but I never meant to desert you Whole lot of things that I just had to work through Time to heal and restore myself Confrontation of my fears and anxiety Cried a whole lot of years I suffered quietly I know it may have taken years, I can finally Tell you that you were always on my mind I had to lose myself So I can make it better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can make it better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can make it better Lose myself in love And that was just the way it is It takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did Greater love to absorb all of the misuse I did Hey baby it's not an excuse I did And I'd do it all again because for you I live It takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did Greater lover to absorb all of the abuse I did Hey baby it's not an excuse I did And I'd do it all again because for you I live I had to lose myself So I can make it better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can make it better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can make it better I had to lose myself I had to lose myself So I can make it better Lose myself in love And that was just the way And that was just the way it is
