Finally...earlier this year, with incentive from long time friends T-Roy Medlin and Jimmy Bower, K.LLOYD ventured to Norfolk, VA & New Orleans, LA to begin recording these songs for an upcoming release on Neurot Recordings. His purpose with music has been renewed and recreated in Blues/Acoustic music which is far from sounding like his earlier Buzzov-en days.
Touring will be sparse and these recordings may not see the light until later in 2008 but regardless, K.LLOYD is back.......
Without You
K. Lloyd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hoo ooh
I can't believe you're gone
Woke up without you this morning
Never thought I'd see the day
You'd pack up your bags and leave me
Now I've gotta find a way
Without you
Without you
Without you
You said I took you for granted
But honey that's something that I'd never do
That's not what your friends said
And now there's no me and no you
And I'm living without you
Never thought I'd live without you
I gave all I could for you
Don't know how to live without you
Without you
Oh girl
We had a good thing here
Now I don't know
If I even want to be here
Without you
There's no reason to breathe
Without you
And I don't know what I'm gonna do
If I have to live without you
Without you
The lyrics to K. Lloyd's song Without You depict the feeling of loss and emptiness after a breakup.

The first verse describes waking up in the morning without the person they thought they would spend their life with. The singer reveals their disbelief at the departure of their partner, and how they never thought they would experience this and now have to find a way to live without them. The second verse acknowledges the reasons for the breakup, stating that the partner accused them of taking them for granted. The singer denies this claim and implies that the partner's friends had something to do with their departure.
