I Used to Love Him

Now I don't, I used to

Love him, now I don't, now I don't
The life which was his, to begin with
The life which was his
He was the ocean and I was the sand

I used to love him, yeah yeah yeah, but now I don't
Father, you saved me and you showed me that life

I see him sometimes and the look in his eye
Showed me that love was respect and devotion
Reached the crossroad, which path would I choose?
When Momma said no, then I just should have heeded
I chose the road of passion and pain
One situation involved a young man
Addicted to love like the drug of, drug of a fiend
Thought what I wanted was somethin' I needed

Now I don't, I used to
I used to love him but now I don't
And out of the darkness arrived the sweet dawn
See, torn and confused, wasted and used
Is one of a man who's lost treasures untold
I used to love him, yeah yeah yeah, but now I don't
Gave up my power, ceased being queen
He stole my heart like a thief in the night
Dulled my senses and blurred my sight
Love him, now I don't
Now I don't, I used to
How many things I pray the Father will forgive

Content because that part of my life is finished
But my heart is guilty, I took back my soul

I used to love him, but now I don't
As I look at what I've done, the type of life that I've lived
Now I don't, I used to
And I used to love him but now I don't
Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated
Was much more than being some foolish man's wife
See, my soul was weary, but now it's replenished
For somethin' to happen that just wasn't fated

Love him, now I don't
Love him, now I don't
Sacrificed too much and waited in vain
I used to love him but now I don't
Greater than planets and deeper than any ocean
Misled, I bled till the poison was gone
And totally let my Creator control
