歌曲 | Lose Myself |
歌手 | Ms. Lauryn Hill |
专辑 | Surf's Up |
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 | |
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! | |
And that was just the way it is |

And all I ever wanted was love | |
I used to love without fear a long time ago | |
And all I ever wanted was love | |
