Carla Thomas
I Loved You Like I Love My Very Life
[Chorus]
I loved you like I love my very life
Now there's no reason to go on
I loved you like I love my very life

[Verse 1]
You’re gone
Hey, did you ever wake up
Wondering why you woke up at all?
Did you ever feel nothing's real
So, why get up to take another fall

[Chorus]
I loved you like I love my very life
Now there's no reason to go on
I loved you like I love my very life

[Verse 2]
What’s the use of me foolin' myself
No matter what I keep tellin' myself
You're gone

[Bridge]
And, woe, how it hurts to swallow
As the tears roll slowly down my face
Where are happy days and love that stays?
And how does one of our souls find a place?
