Never Love You

(album: 24/7 - 1999)

Darling, I love you, I love you
Let's make it clear
I don't know what your friends have been telling you
But my heart is sincere

Well darling, I need you, I need you
It's only the truth
And I swear I'd go out of my mind
With the thought of my loving you

Well, I can't tell you how to feel
But the one thing that I'm sure about
Girl, you'll never find nothing as real

He'll never love you
Not like I love you
He'll never treat you like the lady you are
Who you are
He'll never know you
Not like I know you
He'll never be real, he'll never be true
And you'll never feel like you do in my arms
Not the way I love you

Now darling, I know things ain't perfect
I'm not bout to lie
And I know I ain't been quite the angel
But I apologize

Now you think the grass might be greener
On the other side
Ain't no gold at the end of the rainbow
You're gonna find out in time

Now I can't help what you can't see
But the one thing that I'm sure about
Girl, I know you should be here with me

He'll never love you (No., no)
Not like I love you (Not like I love you)
He'll never treat you like the lady you are
Who you are (Oh)
He'll never know you
Not like I know you
He'll never be real, he'll never be true
And you'll never feel like you do in my arms
Not the way I love you

It's been too long, you need to come back home
Don't matter who's right or wrong, my dear
If I'm to blame, I promise I'll change my ways
And uh, if that's not enough, baby
I'll get down on my knees in the name of love

He'll never love you
Not like I love you (Yeah)
He'll never treat you like the lady you are (You are)
Who you are
He'll never know you (He'll never know you, baby)
Not like I know you
He'll never be real (Real), he'll never be true (True)
And you'll never feel like you do in my arms
Not the way I love you (Not the way that I love you, darlin')

He'll never love you (No)
Not like I love you (Not like I love you, baby, no)
He'll never treat you like the lady you are (You are)
Who you are
He'll never know you (He'll never know you, girl)
Not like (Not like) I know you *I know, I know)
He'll never be real, he'll never be true
And you'll never feel like you do in my arms
