Anthony Hamilton; Keyshia Cole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been too long baby, since you've been gone from me
And I miss your touch
Cause no one could ever no, love me the way you do
Oh no, no, no

(Oh, and taking me away from you will be no damn good for me)
I need you in my life
No one could compare to you

I'm so confused
Don't know if I'm losing you (Don't know if I'm losing you, oh)
I'm so confused (Oh)
Don't know if I'm losing you (Baby)

And there no way I could ever find someone real as you
Keep it true like you do
And I don't wanna lose your love, oh
Over being hurt before
Being afraid before, no

Baby, I know what you've been through
So I'm here to relieve you
Remind you
Renew you
Rebuild you
Girl, I'll do whatever it takes just to reshape what he mess up
Cause real love needs real love
And I'm here love cause I need you





Don't wanna lose your love
Don't wanna lose you

I get chills everytime Anthony starts singing his verse!

@DianneReevesFan

I’m honestly stunned by the number of R&B artists who’ve successfully sampled Natalie Cole. This is an incredible remix.
