Special Delivery - I Destroyed Your Love Lyrics

Lyrics

I destroyed (Destroyed your love)
Your love, your love for me
I destroyed (Destroyed your love)
Your love for me

Oh, oh, I destroyed your love for me
Made you mine, then I treated you harshly, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Yeah... yeah... (Oh, girl)
Oh, to have to saw every fellow in your sight (Every single fellow)
I'd ask that you forgive me, oh, if I thought you might (If I thought might, oh, baby, darlin')
(If I thought you might) Doo, doo, doo, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(Forgive me, girl) Girl (Girl), oh... ho... ho... ho... oh...

I destroyed (I destroyed your love, your love for me)
Made you a victim of my insecurity
And when you had to go I just couldn't understand (I couldn't understand)
I thought (Naw, naw) you found yourself a brand new man

(I destroyed) Eah... (Your love, your love for me)
(I destroyed) Oh, oh, yes, I did, baby (Your love, your love for me)
Ho... oh... oh...

I guess you don't love me, baby
No more, no more (So soon, yeah)
I guess you don't need me, baby (Yeah... eah... eah... eah... eah...)
No more, no more (Baby, it hurts)

I guess you don't want me, baby (Oh, yes, it does, baby)
No more, no more (Truly hurts)
I guess you don't love me, baby (Because you don't want me)
No more (And don't need me), no more (No more)

Now you love me no more, oh, no, baby
Chastising, criticizing, talkin' about the pains of love
Now you love me no more, oh, no, baby
And I want you back, oh, oh, oh, ho... oh... oh...

Now you love me no more, oh, no
I destroyed your love (Oh...)
I destroyed (Oh... oh... ho...) your love
(For that's what pain will do)

I destroyed your love (Make a fool out of you)
I destroyed your love (And every single day)
I destroyed your love (For being a fool I'm gonna pay)
I destroyed (Oh) your love (Oh, yeah... eah... eah...)

I destroyed (Oh) your love (Yes)
I destroyed

And now I feel, feel, ooh (Emptiness inside) emptiness inside
There's nothing left (There's nothing left)
Except a little pride (Except a little pride)
And now I'm paying every single price (I'm paying the price)
For losing you, my love, you were so nice
Always chastising and criticizing you
Now you love me no more for I destroyed your love
Ho, ah, girl, girl, girl (Ho, oh, ah), oh, I, I
That's what pain will do (Oh, oh, oh)
I destroyed your love (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I)
(Oh... oh... I, whoa, I)
And I want you back, baby
(Ho... oh... oh... ooh... ooh...) Yeah
I need you, baby, baby (Ah... ah... ah... ah...)

I destroyed your love, your love for me

Ya know, darling
Things just don't seem to be the same
Not if you are not here
I go to sleep at night
But I Awake up in tears
But you see, now I know
I made a big mistake
When I threw your love away
But I was blind and I couldn't see
That the problem wasn't you, it was me
I destroyed your love with my jealousy
But I never had anybody like you
I never had anybody to make me feel the way you do
So I was just trying to hold on to me precious love
Now I've often heard that sorry is a sorry word
But right now it's the only word that I have
That truly expresses how I feel inside
So darling, wherever you are
Remember, I love you
Come home, please

For being a fool I'm going to pay
