I’ve Lost Everything I’ve Ever Loved

Lyrics

[Intro] Hmm, hmm, hmm-mmm [Verse 1] I was raised an only child My folks died when I was four They were trapped in a fire Way up on the fourteenth floor So my lovin' granny raised me 'Til I reached the age of ten But the good Lord took her too And left my dog Jeff my only friend [Pre-Chorus] Oh, baby Seem like the odds are against me Nothing works out right for me, ooh [Chorus] I've lost everything I've ever loved Honey, honey, now I'm losing you, baby I've lost everything I've ever, ever loved Honey, honey, now I'm losing you Oh, baby [Verse 2] So all my love I gave to Jeff 'Cause he was all I had right then But the wheels of an automobile Brought his life to a tragic end From an orphan home to college Now I found true love in you I felt sure one day we'd marry But your folks did not approve [Pre-Chorus] Oh, baby Seem like the odds are against me Nothing works out right for me, ooh [Chorus] I've lost everything I've ever loved And now, and now I'm losing you, oh I've lost everything I've ever loved, baby Honey, honey, now I'm losing you Ooh [Bridge] Oh, baby [Verse 3] You accepted their decision Without any type of defence They said if we wait a few more years That would make a little more sense So we waited three or four Every day we kept in touch But when we came face to face You didn't love me quite as much [Pre-Chorus] Oh, baby Seem like the odds are against me Nothing works out right for me Ooh, ooh [Chorus] I've lost every, everything I've ever loved Baby, baby, baby, now I'm losin' you I've lost everything, honey, I've ever loved Ow, ow (Now, I'm losin' you) Now I'm losin' you (I've lost everything I've ever loved) I've lost every, every, everything, baby, I've ever, ever loved (Now, I'm losin' you) Honey, now I'm losing, I'ma-lose, I'ma-losin' you (I've lost everything I've ever loved) I've lost my dog Jeff, oh and I lost Granny too (Now, I'm losin' you) Honey, come back, now I'm losing you
