Used To Be

(album: Heart Of Gold - 2023)

We used to be the best of friends
Tied by our souls
Like no one other
Told me your secrets
I told you mine
Cause I ain't out here
Searching for another

But ain't that how it 'posed to be?
Never did I let nobody close to me
Opened up, let you in to take a hold
But you took my loving for granted
I gave even when I ain't have it

Don't want no one using me
Know that you're bad, But I still keep falling

It ain't how it used to be
You're one foot in, one out
But baby I'm all in

I'd cross a million seas
To win your love
Got a whole lot where it comes from
And darling it's bigger than me
I don't wanna end us at all
So I won't bother starting over

I'll still be here when it's done and over
Sitting here banking on a four leaf clover
To make you come back where you belong
Cause I'm only getting older babe

Time flies, years go by
When you're with the right guy
I'm the right guy, trust me

I can stay up all night
Just to hear your voice
Cause I know I'm lucky

You must want me to walk away
Cause I told you so
That I'm here to stay

I can't forget all the things that you said to me
Cause you lied to my face

Don't want no one using me
Know that you're bad, But I still keep falling

It ain't how it used to be
You're one foot in, one out
But baby I'm all in

I'd cross a million seas
To win your love
Got a whole lot where it comes from
And darling it's bigger than me
I don't wanna end us at all
So I won't bother starting over

I'll still be here when it's done and over
Sitting here banking on a four leaf clover
To make you come back where you belong
Cause I'm only getting older babe

I'll still be here when it's done and over
Sitting here banking on a four leaf clover
To make you come back where you belong
Cause I'm only getting older

I'd cross a million seas
To win your love
Got a whole lot where it comes from
And darling it's bigger than me
I don't wanna end us at all
So I won't bother starting over

I'll still be here when it's done and over
Sitting here banking on a four leaf clover
To make you come back where you belong
Cause I'm only getting older babe
