Love of My Life
Joe Moore Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am not afraid of getting hurt
Of anything playing on your mind
You always saw the things that didn't work
I guess that I knew I had to leave you behind

How did this all fall apart?
Where did we start to go wrong?
I only want to give you my heart
'Cause it seems that we're both moving on

And I never thought I'd see the day
Never thought I'd walk away
Even If I could go back
Tell me you'd make me stay
I want another chance but I know is too late

I hate falling in love with you
Each time that I'm gonna leave you I break down
See that you are the love of my life
And I hate walking away from you
I keep changing my mind
And I know that you are the love of my life
The love of my life

Everything I did led to you
And now I feel it drives me away
There's only one thing left to do
And that's to leave you and call it a day

'Cause I never thought I'd say these words
Never thought I'd feel this hurt
Even if I could go back
Tell me we'd make it work
I want another chance but I'm scared it's too late

I hate falling in love with you
Each time that I'm gonna leave you I break down
See that you are the love of my life
And I hate walking away from you
I keep changing my mind
And I know that you are the love of my life
The love of my life
The love of my life

Thought that I'd never see your face again
I wish tomorrow was yesterday
So I could feel it again

I hate falling in love with you
Each time that I'm gonna leave you I break down
You are the love of my life, my life
And I hate walking away from you
I keep changing my mind
And I know-ow-ow-ow that you are the love of my life

Oh, whoa-oh-whoa-oh, whoa-oh
You are the love of my life




My life
Love of my life, oh...
