When I Had You

When I had you
I thought this thing might last forever
You seemed too good to be true
This love of ours couldn't get any better
Then you pulled your love away
And that hit me like a hammer
You left me cut wide open
Reaching behind me for that dagger
I thought I'd never find another girl
That could compare
With the way you made me feel
And the time that we shared
You were everything I ever wanted
Never met a girl my type
Yeah that's until I met you

But girl if I can't have you
I guess any girl will do
She just needs those gorgeous eyes to create a spark
A lyin' mouth and a cheatin heart
She needs a memory for everything I ever did wrong
A mean streak stretchin a country mile long
Yeah lonely never felt so good as when I had you

When I had you
I was 10 ft tall and ridin high
Seemed like all them sad songs would
Finally pass me by
Counting down the hours and minutes
Till when I'd see you again
How could I have known
I was just crawling in to the lions den
All the things in this world that can break a boys heart
Never thought it'd be you
Never thought we'd ever part
But I guess that's why they say hindsight is 20 20
So now I have a different point of view
And I see you turned into someone new

But girl if I can't have you
I guess any girl will do
She just needs those gorgeous eyes to create a spark
A lyin' mouth and a cheatin heart
She needs a memory for everything I ever did wrong
A mean streak stretchin a country mile long
Yeah lonely never felt so good as when I had you

When I had you baby I must've been blind
How did just one kiss completely blur my mind
One little touch and you said you loved me
But those words were as empty as my passenger seat
Sometimes I forget and think I want you back
But after all your lies I'm rewriting this track
Cuz I know there's a girl out there that will treat me right
One that will love me all day and into the night

But girl Since I don't have you
Not just any girl will do
She needs to have those gorgeous eyes to create a spark
An honest mouth and a lovin heart
She needs to love me even when I do wrong
And be as different from you as a country mile is long
So lonely never felt so good as when I had you
