“how it used to be”

[verse i]
i ain’t gonna lie
i can’t even count the days
or the many nights i tried living here alone
a heart full of pride
and couldn’t see the enemy was me
i was blind and thought my second chance was gone

[verse ii]
a ship without a sail
battered by a ranging sea
taking any love i can to try and stop the pain
while waiting to exhale
i finally got on my knees
i know it’s been a long time; do you still remember my name?

[b section]
can i go back in time?
can i have another try?
but i can’t change yesterday

[chorus]
oh, i can’t take another day without you
’cause this heart don’t beat the same without
i forgot who was, got caught up in this world
jesus, i apologized
i should’ve lost my mind without you
not another sleepless night without you, jesus
i’m sorry and i’m asking please make us how we used to be

[verse iii]
i try and try too keep my mind on you trouble keep calling me
every time a wound heals, something else take the healing away
and even when i’ve gone too far, you knew there would come a day
momma said what you love let it go and if it comes back, then it’s back to say
you already knew i belong to only you
i run to your arms and say

[chorus]

[bridge]
never knew a life so cold
i thought that things could fulfill my soul
tried to find love on my own
it was hard to admit i was wrong
no money, no cars, no fame, no lies, no games, my life please take it

[breakdown]
now it comes to the break (hey)
tell what you gon’ say, you go say (i know i know)
i’ll get my life right but (you know) you ain’t promised tonight
baby girl (without you) [2x]

[chorus 2x]
