Lyrics

[Verse 1]

That's the only time I get sentimental

[Verse 2]

I used to mess around

But I never let it get into me

'Cause I didn't take you serious, baby

Now to be without your love

Only makes me realize

What I could've had in you, honey

[Verse 3]

Now that you're gone, I want you

I said, it slapped me in my face

And then my friends don't understand

Because I had the chance

I don't know why

[Verse 4]

I'm going crazy, alone in a daze

And my heart ain't the same

And I don't even think unless I think about you

That's the only time I get sentimental, yeah

That's the reason why, baby, I can't let go of you

Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental

[Verse 5]

I miss you day and night

Seems like you're still here

I"d rather be together, honey

Oh, now that I'm lost for words

I can't believe I'm on my own

I should've been looking at love

[Verse 6]

Now that you're gone, I want you

I said, it slapped me on my face

And now my friends don't understand

Because I had the chance

I don't know why

[Verse 7]

I'm going crazy, alone in a daze

And my heart ain't the same

And I don't even think unless I think about you

That's the only time I get sentimental, yeah

That's the reason why, baby, I can't let go of you

[Verse 8]

I'm going crazy, alone in a daze

And my heart ain't the same

And I don't even think unless I think about you

Oh, that's the only time I get sentimental

That's the reason why, baby, I can't let go of you

That's the only time I get sentimental

That's the only time I get sentimental

[Verse 9]

Now that you're gone, I want you more

I said, it slapped me on my face

And then my friends don't understand

'Cause I had the chance

I don't know why

[Verse 10]

I'm going crazy, alone in a daze

And my heart ain't the same

And I don't even think unless I think about you

That's the only time I get sentimental

That's the reason why, baby, I can't let go of you

[Verse 11]

I'm going crazy, alone in a daze

And my heart ain't the same

And I don't even think unless I think about you

That's the only time I get sentimental

[Verse 12]

That's the only time I think about you, baby, bae, oh yeah

That's the reason why, baby, I can't let go of, can't let go of you

That's the only time I get sentimental (Oh, I can't let go of you)

That's the only time I get

That's the only time I get (Tell me, baby)

That's the only time I get sentimental
