Lyrics

LOST LOVER
words & music by John Cunningham and J. Walter Guy


LOST LOVER, I lost the sweetest love; I could ever have tonight
You uncovered, all my vain motives; I still didn't see the light
No other took me serious; they saw through the lies,
Then you, Baby, showed me what true lovin' was;
It hit me right between the eyes

You asked me for the ultimate commitment,
I just held you and smiled.

I'll take your love with no strings,
I think I'll hang around; We could paint the town
Then we'll clown around; and laugh a while.

LOST LOVER, I'm the lost lover; I'm losin' once again,
You'd think maybe, I would get weary of this familiar trend,
So I never gave myself to anyone; I didn't think it wise,
But, you, Baby, wanted more than just a friend,
You took me by surprise,

You asked again for that ultimate commitment,
I just held you and smiled,
I want your love with no strings,
Baby, did I mention? I had no intention;
Of sharing my pension; With anyone.
[break]

My heart will beg someday --- And plead for you to stay
I should be giving you all I got, Baby,

You want the reasons why I'm not well, listen,
Just hold me and smile,
Why change the present situation,
'Cause everything was fine; while we sipped our wine,
Then you crossed the line; And fell in love;

You said you couldn't live without me, Baby,
I just held you and smiled,
Looked in your eyes; and realized,
Is my searchin' done? Could you be the one?
Has your love begun to work on me?
