Mcneal Lutricia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You left me all alone
I can't take it no more
I wish that you were here by my side
Cause I remember those days
When it wasn't our time
If I could right the wrong that I did
If you were here
I know you would too
I know you would too yeah
[Chorus]
I don't want to feel like I'm stranded
Oh baby I don't want to be here alone
Cause I don't want to feel abandoned
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs
Now that I'm alone
And you walked away from me
I just don't want to live anymore
Anymore, anymore baby
I gave my life to you
like you gave your life to me
If only I could show what I mean
Cause I need you more than ever
If you were here
You would need me too
Don't want to be, don't want to be
[Chorus]
I know I'll see you again some day
I'll be waiting for that all my life
All my life
I know that things would be the same again
I know some day I'll see you again
[Chorus: x2]

I don't want to feel like I'm stranded
I feel lost and alone without you
You left me all alone
You abandoned me when I needed you the most
I can't take it no more
I am struggling to cope with the pain of being without you
I wish that you were here by my side
I long for your comforting presence in my life
Cause I remember those days
I recall the happy moments we shared together
When it wasn't our time
When we weren't meant to be together in the past
If I could right the wrong that I did
If I could go back and fix my mistakes
I would give it all to you
I would do anything to make it up to you
If you were here
If you were with me now
I know you would too
I know you would forgive me too
I don't want to feel like I'm stranded
I feel lost and alone without you
Oh baby I don't want to be here alone
I don't want to face life without you
Cause I don't want to feel abandoned
I fear being left behind and unwanted
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs
Our love was meant for eternity and in heaven
Now that I'm alone
Now that you're gone and I'm by myself
And you walked away from me
And you left me behind to face the world on my own
I just don't want to live anymore
I don't see the point of living without you
Anymore, anymore baby
I can't take this pain and loneliness anymore
I gave my life to you
I dedicated my whole life to making you happy
like you gave your life to me
Just like you did for me
If only I could show what I mean
If only you could understand the depth of my love for you

Because I need you now more than ever in my life
If you were here
If only you were here by my side
You would need me too
Just like I need you, you would need me too
Don't want to be, don't want to be
I don't want to be alone anymore
I know I'll see you again some day
I believe that we will be reunited again someday
I'll be waiting for that all my life
I'll be patiently waiting for that day for the rest of my life
I know that things would be the same again
I know that when we meet again, everything will be just like before
I know some day I'll see you again
I know that someday, somehow, we will be together again
