Lost Lover
Tuxedo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost lover, won't you come on back to me
Lost lover, with you I'm in ecstacy

Far too many lonely nights without you girl
Wondering where you out tonight in the cold, cold world
Don't you know that I want you in my life
Don't you know that I need you by my side, all the time
Lost lover, won't you come on back to me
Lost lover, with you I'm in ecstacy

Lost lover, won't you come on back to me
Lost lover, with you I'm in ecstacy

What we had was oh so right, can't forget your love
Tossing in my sleep at night, I need your touch
Don't you know that I want you in my life
Don't you know that I need you by my side, all the time

Lost lover, won't you come on back to me
Lost lover, with you I'm in ecstacy





Lost lover, won't you come on back to me
Lost lover, with you I'm in ecstacy
