I let true love slip away
I feel the pain every day
I was blind and didn’t see
What God had given to me
The moments I’ll never forget
They feel my heart with regret
Next time I’ll cherish love when I find it
Do what’s necessary to bind it
I took so much for granted
I didn’t water the seeds planted
I didn’t know how to handle love
I didn’t know it was sweeter than a dove
I learned my lesson too late
I’ve changed positions to the letter
It will make me better
Next time I’ll cherish love when I find it
Do what’s necessary to bind it
I’ll never get that love back again
Yet, God will show me how to win
I’ve looked at me
And now I’m what I”m supposed to be
I’ll carry that lesson everywhere I go
It’ll help me grow
Next time I’ll cherish love when I find it
Do what’s necessary to bind it
True love comes once in a lifetime
It should be nourished in its prime
Next time I’ll cherish love when I find it
Do what’s necessary to bind it
Next time
