Taking Everything (Album Version)

Taking Everything (Album Version) - Gerald Levert

To my heart

To my car

To my crib

My kids everything

Never thought you bring me so much pain

Lord knows I tried to keep you happy

Girl in every way

I'm on the road doing my thing

Trying to keep you laced

Trying to keep a smile upon your face girl

Put all my happiness in vain

Or did I place in you a little too much faith

Now I'm left with memories

Never thought that

This would be the price I had to pay

You took my heart you took my car

You took my crib yes you did

Got the nerve to take my kids

Got the nerve to take my kids

Took my love and my life

Girl you took my soul

Taking everything from me

Taking everything from me

You took my heart girl you took my car

And you took my crib tryin' to take my kids

Girl you took my love then you took my soul

Taking everything

Everything everything

Everything everything

And now I'm sitting all alone

Trying to figure out

Where you and I went wrong

You know it makes me wanna cry

Just thinking about it makes me

Wanna lay down and die

For the life of me I don't know how

That you could take for granted

And disregard our sacred vows

Now I'm left with memories

Never thought that this would be the price

I'd have to pay

You took my heart

Girl you took my my car

Tryin' to take my crib girl

You got the nerve to take my kids

Got the nerve to take my kids

And take my love love love love

And my life girl you took my soul yeah

Taking everything from me

Taking everything from me

You took my heart my car

My crib my my kids my kids

My love soul

Everything

Everything everything

Everything everything

Now I ain't never been no fool

I've always tried to keep my cool

I was faithful and true

Never bruised you or used you

Even though sometimes

You make me want to

But I loved you

You should try to understand

Girl I was your man

My life was in your hands baby

My love was shinning over there

But this wasn't part of your plan

No no no no

What about the plans we had

Now you're gone

And I'm just gonna be a weekend dad baby

Can I call you baby

Or is that just a passing thing babe

Listen to this sad song I sing yeah

What about the ring

What about the ring Oh ho

Now you going away in my car girl

You can have the crib

But won't you give me back my kids

How am I supposed to live

Oh baby without love without love babe

She given me

My life all my life

I'd thought we'd live forever

Said we'd be together

And you would never

Never never never never

Never never ever ever leave me

Take my

Heart crib cars kids love life

Souls from me

My cars heart crib kids my kids and now

You would never never never leave me

Oh no oh oh so oh

Why How could you

Ah You took everything
