There's probably a lot of you girls out there hung up on a man And you're caught in that old familiar way of wanting someone Who don't want you You know, men are full of schemes And they're masters of getting control of our minds and making Us dependent on them As I look back to the day you left me I felt that love had forsaken me As time went by, tears began to dry Now I see you never really cared Life is wonderful when love is shared The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself Your love controlled, but never consoled me I was in love, but so unhappy So many nights I was in the cold
When you left, you opened up the door To a world I'd never seen before The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself I found love with someone who needs me I'm loving life the way it should be I gave you love, you only used me And when you left, you hurt yourself I found identity with someone else The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself The day that I lost you, that's the day I found myself Don't you know that you only hurt yourself I'm so glad you're gone, cause you made me so... Oh, bless the day you left, cause that's the day I found myself...
