| I used to do it for the love a long time ago | |
| And all I ever wanted was love | |
| I used to love without fear a long time ago | |
| And all I ever wanted was love | |
| Then somebody came around and tried to hurt me | |
| Tried to make me feel like I was unworthy | |
| Took a pure love and tried to make it dirty | |
| Truth was they never did deserve me | |
| No! | |
| Chorus: | |
| I had to lose myself so I could love you better | |
| I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could | |
| love you better | |
| Had to lose myself, had to lose myself | |
| So I could love you better | |
| Had to lose myself in love | |
| And that's just the way it is | |
| Couldn't tell me I was love when I needed it | |
| When, all I ever wanted was love. | |
| Should a told me just me because! | |
| I'm worth receiving it | |
| But all I ever wanted was love | |
| There's is something awkward about the selflessness it | |
| takes to | |
| Give love and the good that it makes you! | |
| True love can never really forsake you | |
| But it took a little while just for me to see! | |
| Chorus: | |
| I had to lose myself so I could love you better | |
| I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could | |
| love you better | |
| Had to lose myself, had to lose myself | |
| So I could love you better | |
| Had to lose myself in love | |
| And that's just the way it is | |
| I had a paralyzing fear of facing failure | |
| And I couldn't love you perfectly with fear in my head | |
| So I peerlessly had to face the danger | |
| So I could come back and love you whole instead | |
| All of your soul I said! | |
| So I could make it better | |
| Chorus: | |
| I had to lose myself so I could love you better | |
| I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could | |
| love you better | |
| Had to lose myself, had to lose myself | |
| So I could love you better | |
| Had to lose myself in love | |
| And that's just the way it is | |
| B-Sec: | |
| And so it goes that I never meant to hurt you | |
| Couldn't stay but I never meant to desert you | |
| Whole lot a things I just had to work thru | |
| Time to heal and restore myself worth too | |
| Confrontation of my fears and anxiety | |
| Cried a whole lot years I suffered quietly | |
| And though it may have taken years I can finally! | |
| Tell you that you were always on my mind! | |
| Chorus: | |
| I had to lose myself so I could make it better | |
| I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could | |
| make it better | |
| Had to lose myself, had to lose myself | |
| So I could make it better | |
| Had to lose myself in love | |
| And that was just the way! | |
| Bridge: | |
| Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did | |
| Great love to absorb all the misuse I did | |
| Hey baby it's not an excuse I give. | |
| And I'd do it all again because for you I live | |
| Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did | |
| Great love to absorb all the abuse I did | |
| Hey baby it's not an excuse I give. | |
| And I'd do it all again because for you I live | |
