used to love him .

" as i looked at what i've done

th ' type of life that i've lived

how many things i pray th ' father will forgive

one situation involved a young man

he was th ' ocean and i was th ' sand

he stole my heart like a theif in th ' night

dulled my senses and blurried my sight

i used to love him buh now i don't

i chose a road of passion and pain

sacrificed too much and waited in vain

gave up my power , ceased being a queen

addicted to love like th ' drug of a fiend

torn and confused , wasted and used

reached th ' crossroad which path would i choose

stuck and frustrated , i waited , debated

for something to happen that just wasn't fated

thought what i wanted was something i needed

when momma said no i just should have heeded

misled i bled til th ' poison was gone

and out of th ' darkness arrived th ' sweet dream

i used to love him but now i don't "
