I didn't mean it 
When I said I didn't love you, so 
I should have held on tight 
I never shoulda let you go 
I didn't know nothing 
I was stupid, I was foolish 
I was lying to myself 
I could not fathom that I would ever 
Be without your love 
Never imagined I'd be 
Sitting here beside myself 
Cause I didn't know you 
Cause I didn't know me 
But I thought I knew everything 
I never felt 

The feeling that I'm feeling 
Now that I don't hear your voice 
Or have your touch 
And kiss your lips 
Cause I don't have a choice 
Oh, what I wouldn't give 
To have you lying by my side 
Right here, cause baby 
(We belong together) 

When you left I lost a part of me 
It's still so hard to believe [bad word] back baby, please 
Cause we belong together 

Who else am I gon' lean on 
When times get rough 
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone 
Till the [bad word] up 
Who's gonna take your place 
There ain't nobody better 
Oh, baby baby, we belong together 

I can't sleep at night 
When you are on my mind 
Bobby Womack's on the radio 
Saying to me 
"If you think you're lonely now" 
Wait a minute 
This is too deep (too deep) 
I gotta change the station 
So I turn the dial 
Trying to catch a break 
And then I hear Babyface 
I only think of you 
And it's breaking my heart 
I'm trying to keep it together 
But I'm falling apart 

I'm feeling all out of my element 
I'm throwing things, crying 
Trying to figure out 
Where the [bad word] I went wrong 
The pain reflected in this song 
It ain't even half of what 
I'm feeling inside 
I need you 
Need you back in my life, baby 

When you left I lost a part of me 
It's still so hard to believe [bad word] back baby, please 
Cause we belong together 

Who else am I gon' lean on 
When times get rough 
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone 
Till the [bad word] up 
Who's gonna take your place 
There ain't nobody better 
Oh, baby baby, we belong together
