Find a Way
Dwele Lyrics

It used to be, we would be the best of all friends
In the past, we were close friends.

It turned to be L O V E and I was your man
Our friendship turned into a romantic relationship, and I became your partner.

So you was my lady-friend, we spent time
You were my girlfriend, and we spent a lot of time together.

I found a way to be by your side
I made sure to always be by your side, through thick and thin.

Through the ins and outs, the wrongs and rights
I was with you through all of life's ups and downs, good and bad times.

After a while of bein' settled down, I didn't know how to keep the love
As our relationship became more stable, I struggled to maintain the love we had for each other.

'cause I was young, I wish I knew then what I know now
I was young and inexperienced in matters of love, and I wish I had known then what I know now.

I wouldn't let you go, I swear I would've made this love grow
If given the chance, I would have never let you go and would have worked to make our love stronger.

I spent a lot of time and a lot of dough
I devoted a significant amount of time and money to trying to recreate what we once had.

Tryin' to match what we had and now I, I
I was trying to recreate the love we once had, but now I realize that it cannot be exactly duplicated.

I was hopin' we could find a way
I am hoping that we can restore our relationship.

To have what we had again today
I long for the same love we shared in the past to be present in our relationship now.

Though it's been some time since you and I
It has been a while since we were in a relationship.

It wouldn't hurt to try to find our love
There is no harm in attempting to reconnect and find the love we once had.

Wish that I would have known the treasures I'd found
I regret not realizing how valuable our love was when we were together.

I didn't know until you left, I loved your smile
I did not truly appreciate and recognize my love for you until after you had left.

Just the other day your girl said that you can't stand me
Recently, someone close to you mentioned that you do not like me.

I know you don't mean that
I believe that you do not actually dislike me.

Can't we just slow down a minute and talk it out?
Can we take a moment to discuss and possibly resolve any issues between us?

I've been through my share of love since then
I have had other romantic relationships since our breakup.

Don't know about what you've been through
I am unsure about your romantic experiences since our breakup.

But nothin' compares to what we had
None of my other relationships compare to the love we once shared.

All I know is I need you back and I know that you need me back
I am aware that I need you in my life, and I believe that you feel the same way about me.

Baby, let's try again to find our love
Let's make an effort to find our way back to each other and rekindle our love.

I can't forget the times we shared
I cannot forget the memories we created together in our past relationship.

Didn't know love until love was gone
I did not realize how much I loved you until we were no longer together.

'Til I moved on
I only realized the depth of my love for you when I began to move on from our past relationship.

Now I'm right back to square one again
Now that I have reconnected with you, it feels like I am starting over again at the beginning of our relationship.

Find our love, baby
Let's find our way back to each other and our love once again.
