All the Befores

Song All the Befores
Artist Diana Ross
Album Surrender

Lyrics

作词 : Ashford, Simpson
Thought I could make it without you
Thought I could walk away
And never look back
Thought I had the secret
To stop these eyes from crying
Told myself he were no good
So what's the need in trying
But as you see, here
I amLoving you stronger than ever
Promising to be better, getting into my head
I don't know how to be nothing but yours
I guess I should have learned
From all the befores
I wrote a nice long letter
Explaining my reasons for leaving
Hoping it would tear you apart
And leave you grieving
I bet you didn't even read it
You're so familiar with the lines
You just glanced up at the clock'
Cause you knew the exact time
I'd knockWithout pride, here
I standWaiting for your forgiveness
This is where
I belongCome what may, this time
I'll stayYou might as well lock all the doors
I guess I should have learned
From all the befores
Promising to be better
And getting into my head
I don't know how to be nothing but yours
I guess I should have learned
From all the befores

To stop these eyes from crying
Told myself he were no good
