Well my mama didn't warn me about you and your kind
But I never had no reason to doubt you in my mind
I know I wouldn't last a minute without you
I didn't wanna lose your love

Didn't wanna lose ya
Would have given anything
Didn't wanna lose ya

When you told me you were thinkin' of walkin' from my life
I knew the only way to keep you was talkin' open wide

But I saw that you were making your mind up
And I didn't wanna lose your love

Didn't wanna lose ya
Would have given anything
Didn't wanna lose ya

But I saw that you were making your mind up
And I didn't wanna lose your love

Well my mama didn't warn me about you and your ways
But I never had no reason to doubt you anyway

Didn't wanna lose ya
Would have given anything
Didn't wanna lose ya

Everything I had to give
Didn't wanna lose ya
Would have given all I had
Didn't wanna lose ya
