All I Have
The Moments Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I have
Left in my heart
Is my love for you

Romance is over and through (Romance)
No longer and I supposed to think of you
Or of memories of happier times
When darling, I was yours and you were mine
'Cause now you ask me girl to give you back

All that I have
Ooh, baby
All that I have

And all I have
Left in my heart
Is my love for you

How can you
Have the nerve to say
Go and find (Go and find) someone ne&119

Sorry, sorry it has to end this way (To end)
But I don't think that I could have gone through another day
Of knowing you don't want me around
And knowing of this new love you've found
'Cause now you ask me, girl, to give you back

All that I have
Ooh, baby

And all I have
Left in my heart
Is my love (Is my love) for you

And how can you
Have the nerve to say
Go and find (Go and find) someone new

Darling
If this is what you really want me to do




Then I'll go out and try
To find someone new

on I Don't Want To Go

Lately I been Known
For making up excuses
And all too many times
Wondering what the use is now
Nothing like it used to be
When you and me
Were all I ever dreamed of

Dreams just don't come true
Just the way you planned them
And looking back in time
I still don't understand just how
The feeling comes and goes
And before I start to lie
I want you to know

[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

Did we turn away
Just when we saw it coming
And could we have been saved
Or would we still
Be running scared
The space became so wide
That no matter how I tried
There was just no place to hide

Ohh Baby

[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

Repeat 2x
[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before

I Just
(But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me)
I Just
(I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before)

I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like
Just like before
