Have You Heard?
Gibbons/Hill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It feels so good to have you near
It feels so good to have you here again
You're quite a man
To give to me a second chance

I don't know what came over me
I don't know why did I believe
The things my so-called friends
Were telling me

I thought that I was missing out
On a good time
I thought I'd be better off
Living the single life

Now I know, that I never should have let you go
I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I
I've come to realize
That I never should have let you go

You are one of a rare breed
'Cause I've never known of a man
So caring, so loving, so understanding
Yes, you are baby

Excuse me if I, if I start crying
I can't believe
That you're still in love with me
I'm undeserving, I'm unworthy
Of such a good feeling

I was a fool not to know
With you is where I belong
I thought I'd be better off
On my own

Now I know, that I never should have let you go
I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I
To ever leave your side
Now I know, that I never should have let you go

I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I
I've come to realize
That I never should have let you go

I was wrong, to leave you alone
I was wrong to let you go
I was wrong, to say goodbye, and I apologize
But I was all mixed up in the mind
I couldn't see what was right in front of me, but

Now I know, that I never should have let you go
I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I
To ever leave your side

Now I know, that I never should have let you go
I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I
I've come to realize
That I never should have let you go

Now I know, that I never should have let you go
I know now that I was wrong, so wrong, was I




I've come to realize
That I never should have let you go
