Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes Album

The love I lost
Was a sweet love
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never, no, no never
Love again, ooh

I can remember planning
Building my whole world around you
I can remember hoping
That you and I could make it on through

But something went wrong
We loved each other
We just couldn't get along
Take a good look at me
I'm in misery, can't you see

The love I lost
Was a sweet love
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never, no, no never
Love again, ooh

I can't remember nothing, no no
But the good times we used to share, my love
I'm so sad and lonely
But without you my life is so dead

I'm sorry to say
You go your way and I'll go my way
It hurts deep inside
The day we said goodbye, but

The love I lost
Was a sweet love
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never, no, no never
Love again, ooh

I would never, never, never love again
I will never, no, no never
Love again, ooh
I will never, no, no never
Love again, ooh
Never, no, no never
Love again, ooh

If you don't know me by now
You will never, never
Never know me, ooh, ooh

All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you

Now, baby, I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To upset our happy home

Oh, don't get so excited when
I come home a little late at night
Cause we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now
(If you don't know me)
You will never, never
Never know me, ooh, ooh
(You'll never, never)
(Never know me)

If you don't know me by now
(If you don't know)
(If you don't know me, baby)
You will never, never
Never know me
(No, you won't) ooh, ooh

We all got
Our own funny moods
I've got mine, woman
You got yours too

Just trust in me
Like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
That should be so easy to do

Just get yourself together or
We might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When we can't see eye to eye, oh

If you don't know me by now
(If you don't)
(If you don't know me, baby)
You will never, never
Never know me (hey, hey)
(Ooh, ooh) hey, hey, hey, hey

If you don't know me by now
(If you don't know me by now)
You will never, never
Never know me (no, you won't)
Ooh, ooh (oh)

(If you don't know me by now)
Ten long years
Ten long years we've been together
If you don't know me by now
(If you don't know me by now)

Wake up, everybody

So very much
From what it used to be
There is so much hatred
War and poverty, whoa, oh

Wake up, all the teachers
Time to teach a new way

To what'cha have to say

And the world is in their hands

And who catch all the hell

Before the Judgment Day
So wont'cha make them happy
Before they pass away

Wake up, all the builders
Time to build a new land
I know we can do it
If we all lend a hand

The only thing we have to do
Is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out
They do it every time

If we just let it be, na, na, na
The world won't get no better
We gotta change it, yeah
Just you and me
