Lyrics Deborah Cox

Deborah Cox

More Than I Knew

I gave you my heart on a platter

It was stupid

I gave you my life like it mattered

But you took it

I know that people tell me that it's gonna take time

But time feels like forever when you ain't by my side

I was young and foolish for breaking the spell

And now it just feels like I'm guilting myself

I found every reason to spin this around

Oh why, why, why, why

I missed you so much more than I ever loved you

I'm better at needing you now than when I had you

Oh I, I know I complained

But now you're all that I crave

Maybe I just loved you more than I knew

The truth is so hard to remember when it's fading

And all I can think about is what worked, it's amazing

It's funny how back then we always focused on the fact

And now it seems like you're the best thing I ever had

I was young and foolish for breaking the spell

And now it just feels like I'm guilting myself

I found every reason to spin this around

Oh why, why, why, why

I missed you so much more than I ever loved you

I'm better at needing you now than when I had you

Oh I, I know I complained

But now you're all that I crave

Maybe I just loved you more than I knew

I know in my heart we're not meant to be

If things were that good you'd be here with me

Or maybe I ruined a perfect thing

Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah

I missed you so much more than I ever loved you

I'm better at needing you now than when I had you

Oh I, I know I complained

But now you're all that I crave

Maybe I just loved you more than I knew
