Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Dinner's ready

And the wine is chilled

My baby's coming over

Well, I know just how I feel

Because I don't wanna lose your love

Think how it feels, baby

It's gettin' harder to conceal, yeah

Do I fit in the life you've been livin', boy?

Baby, say I do

Do you feel all the love I've been givin' you?

[PreChorus]

Oh, when you come home

Do you care to see me?

Things ain't the way they used to be, baby, but

I can't believe that's your only reason

You've got to say just what's the reason

Don't take my love for granted, boy

And then turn around and regret it, whoa

[Chorus]

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna

I don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose you

I don't wanna lose your love

Oh, come on, say you will

Come on and say that you will

I'll do the best to fulfill

I will be there

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna lose your love

I think you need my love

You can't defeat my love

You won't believe my love

Don't wanna lose you

I don't wanna lose your love

[Verse 2]

Hey, hey, yeah, hey, hey, well

You just don't know, oh, whoa

What you do to me, well

I wanna ask you somethin'

Hey, baby, hey, baby

I think we can make it, how 'bout you?

But don't just send me away

To be alone, I don't

Think I can take it

[PreChorus]

'Cause if you tell me to go

I will leave you, oh

Don't ask me to stay and do me wrong, yeah

Do I fit in the life you've been livin', boy?

Do you feel all my love I've been givin' you?

[Verse 3]

Whoa, I want the love you love, most of all

Now, I'm the one you never call, baby, but

I don't think you really wanna leave me

I think you're confused and you don't want to believe it

[PreChorus]

You can't take love and just walk away

Don't take it and walk away

With the guilt that you carry

You'll be back some day, whoa

[Chorus]

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna

I don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose you

I don't wanna lose your love

[Bridge]

Come on and say that you will

I'll be there to fulfill

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose your love

Don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna lose your love

[PostChorus]

Yeah, hey, oh, yeah

Ooh, you just don't know

No, what you do to me

Well, well, ooh, ooh

[Refrain]

I don't wanna lose, lose your love

I don't wanna lose, lose your love

I don't wanna lose, lose your love

I don't wanna lose, lose your love

I don't wanna lose, lose your love

I don't wanna lose, lose your love
