I Used To Love Him Lyrics by Lauryn Hill

I Used To Love Him Lyrics

    As I look at what I've done
    The type of life that I've lived
    How many things I pray the father will forgive
    One situation involved a young man
    He was the ocean and I was the sand
    He stole my heart like a thief in the night
    Dulled my senses blurred my sight

    I used to love him but now I don't
    I used to love him but now I don't

    I chose a road of passion and pain
    Sacrificed too much and waited in vain
    Gave up my power ceased being queen
    Addicted to love like the drug of a fiend

    Torn and confused wasted and used
    Reached the crossroad which path would I choose
    Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated
    For something to happen that just wasn't fated
    Thought what I wanted was something I needed
    When momma said no I just should have heeded
    Misled I bled till the poison was gone
    And out of the darkness arrived the sweet dawn

    I used to love him but now I don't
    I used to love him but now I don't

    Father you saved me and showed me that life
    Was much more than being some foolish man's wife
    Showed me that love was respect and devotion
    Greater than planets deeper than oceans
    My soul was weary but now it's replenished
    Content because that part of my life is finished

    I see him sometimes and the look in his eye
    Is one of a man who's lost treasures untold
    But my heart is gold I took back my soul
    And totally let my creator control
    The life which was his to begin with

    I used to love him but now I don't
    [Repeat to end]
