i had a hundred dollar ring in my hand
so weak and tired i could barely stand
from bein up all night praying she´d say yes
so with a hopeful heart i hit one knee
with a tear in her eye she looked at me
it was the moment of truth, i was scared to death.
my life hung on what that tear meant
then she smiled at me, and i lost it...

chorus
no one can make me cry, make me laugh
make me smile or drive me mad, like she does
it´s like a curse that is the cure
better or worse, one thing´s for sure
it´s real love
and i don´t know what i´d do if i lost it

well the honeymoon ended and life began
jobs and bills, losing touch with friends
and that apartment got smaller everyday
then one night the walls finally closed in
i came home late, she said where have you been
you used to call and tell me you´re on your way
she said if this is how its gonna be then i quit
she walked out the door, i lost it...

chorus 1x:

i picked myself up off the floor
she walked back through the door
we made love like it was the first time

chorus 1x:

oh if i lost it (if i lost it)
i dont wanna lose it...
