Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know where I went wrong when I
Loved you more than I love myself
I would have done anything for you
Ay-ay-ay-ay
[Verse 2]
And I learned when I realized you didn't love
Me the way that I loved you, but now I know
It's hurts inside
Ay-ay-ay-ay
Ay, ay, ay
[Verse 3]
Got to get my heart back to
The way it used to love
The way it used to be
And the way it used to feel before I
Fell in love
Fell in love with you
[Verse 4]
Ay
Got to get my heart back to
The way it used to love
The way it used to be (Way it, ay)
And the way it used to feel before I (The way it)
Fell in love
Fell in love with you
[Verse 5]
All I want is true love, couldn't tolerate no more
Lovin' someone
(Who couldn't learn to love somebody else)
That's why my heart ain't been the same
I see right now, where it's headin' down
The same road I seen before
But no one told me that it would hurt this way
That my life wouldn't be the same
That's why I got to get my heart back to
[Verse 6]
Got to get my heart back to
The way it used to love
The way it used to be
And the way it used to feel before I
Fell in love (Uh, come on)
Fell in love with you
[Verse 7]
You ain't gotta lie (Lie)
You see me lookin' fly (Fly)
You want me on your arm (Arm)
Well, I ain't got the time (Time)
I seen it all, baby, I've been around the world (Aye-aye-aye)
And it's a cold game everywhere around the world
I seen **** get crossed up 'cause they the realest
And all the realest **** in the street don't have no feelings
It comes from bein' neglected, and I'm so alone
I'm in my own zone, I'm tryna get my heart back
[Verse 8]
Got to get my heart back to (Hey, yeah)
The way it used to love
The way it used to be
And the way it used to feel before I
Fell in love (Ay, yeah)
Fell in love with you
[Verse 9]
(I'm tryna get my heart)
Got to get my heart back to (Hey, yeah)
The way it used to love (Come on, now)
The way it used to be (Can you understand?)
And the way it used to feel, before I (How it used to be)
Fell in love ('Fore I, baby)
Fell in love (Oh) with you (With you)
[Verse 10]
The way I used to love (Baby)
The way I used to be (Baby)
The way I used to feel (Baby)
Before I fell in love (Baby)
(Fell in love, fell in love with you, with you, with you)
The way I used to love (Baby)
The way I used to be (Baby)
The way I used to feel (Baby)
Before I fell in love (Baby)
(Fell in love, fell in love with you, with you)
