  • You took the power out of both of my hands
    I watched it melt away like a grain of sand Ain't no feeling greater than the way we was
    I wish we could go right back to where we was Like a warrior without a sword
    Like I'm on a battlefield with no reward Through the dark I thought we'd come the light of day

    Girl, you swore that's why you never change And we went far as we could, far as we could go
    And we climbed high and real tight as we could hold But you let go, you let go
    Thought I was the one that owned your heart So how did we just fall so far apart
    I was here for you, I promise to be there for you, more promise

    You knew that I was here for you, I was here for you
    I thought I was the one that held your heart Like a movie without a score
    Feel like I'm on a ship, but there's no shore I'm lost, now of course I thought that we would always be
    Yeah, but you turned around and you showed me You showed me

    When I played a game with you, I lose I can't seem to find a way
    Cause you have your own way by switching up rules I'm so confused now
    I'm just thinking back on the way we were So happy, we were so close to making it work
    And we went far as we could, far as we could go And we climbed high and real tight as we could hold

    But you let go, you let go Thought I was the one that owned your heart
    So how did we just fall so far apart
    We had it all, we had it all, yes we did, yeah I thought I was the one that loved your heart
    I thought I was the one that loved your heart Writer/s: Myron Lavell Avant, Travis J Sayles
