Never Took the Time

[Verse 1]

A moment ago it seemed, it was yesterday

You were here with me

And everything seems to be the same

What am I supposed to do

With all these empty rooms?

Sit here in solitude

With the smell of your perfume

[Hook]

You never took the time to know me

You never took the time to understand

You never took the time to know me, yeah

‘Cause loving you is all I ever had

Said loving you is all I ever had

[Verse 2]

This wasn't what I wanted to be

A man in misery

Girl, I look back a thousand times

And can't believe that you left me

(Why you leave me, baby?)

Why can't you understand my pain?

How can I explain?

Girl, I don't know what I'm doing wrong

I can't believe that your love is gone

[Hook]

‘Cause you never took the time to know me

(Said you never took the time to know me)

You never took the time to understand (ohhhhh yeah)

Said you never took the time to know me

(Said you never took the time to know me)

See, loving you is all I ever had (had, I had)

Baby, loving you is all I ever had

[Instrumental]

[Over hook]

Ooh yeah, you're all I need

You're all I see

And I wish that we could do it again

[Hook/Outro]

‘Cause you never took the time to know me

(Baby, you never took the time to know me)

You never took the time to understand

(Ohh-ohh-ohh, ohhh, yeah)

Said you never took the time to know me, yeah (ohhh)

Because of you, now I'm just a lonely man (ohh)

Because of you, now I'm just a lonely man
