You Haven't Loved Until You've Lost
Paris Youth Foundation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It asks politely but I never listen though
This city's view
Reminds me of you
My love
These break up songs
My love
I know it's early in the morning
I know that I shouldn't be calling
My hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you lost
I know that these late night phone calls need to stop
I Called my common sense but his phone must have been off
This city's view
Reminds me of you
My love
These break up songs
Cannot right my wrongs
My love
I know it's early in the morning
I know that I shouldn't be calling
My hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you lost
One day I hope your dreams come true
The nights are for thinking about you
my hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you've lost
Girl our love is going nowhere
I can't do this now
I know it's early in the morning
I know that I shouldn't be calling
My hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you lost
One day I hope your dreams come true
The nights are for thinking about you
my hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you've lost
My hearts counting the cost
You haven't loved until you've lost
