I Just Wanna Be Lovin’ You

[Verse 1]
I'm standin' on the edge of my life
Feel like I'm goin' down for the third time
I'm clutchin' for a ray of hope from above
You're the only hope I know
Throw me down your rope of love

[Chorus]
I just wanna be lovin' you
Can't get you out of my mind
I just wanna be lovin' you
And leave your memory behind

[Verse 2]
Remember when your sun didn't shine
You walk the streets alone and jobs were hard to find
You had ambition, I wanted to help you (Help you)
I sacrificed to buy you clothes, I did without myself
It felt so good to know you needed me then
Don't treat me like a steppin' stone you'll never need again

[Chorus]
I just wanna be lovin' you
Can't get you out of my mind
Oh, I just wanna be lovin' you
Can't leave your memory behind

[Verse 3]
My sacrifice has left me in pain
Since you made the grade, you started to change
Now that old phone just sits on the wall
And I never hear your footsteps comin' down that empty hall
I should pack my bags and leave town today
But I can't start to search for someone else, my love for you stands in the way

[Chorus]
I just wanna be lovin' you
Can't get you out of my mind
Oh, I just wanna be lovin' you
Can't leave your memory behind

[Outro]
Somewhere in your arms (I just wanna be lovin' you)
There's got to be a place for me, just like there used to be (Can't get you out of my mind)
Somewhere in your heart (I just wanna be lovin' you)
There's got to be a place for me, just like there used to be (Can't leave your memory behind)
