Can't Afford To Lose

I tried to hide from the fire

But there's no place that I can go

I tried to feel no desire

But I only felt my love grow

I need you so, without you I can't go on

My life has got no direction

You know I'm helpless from the moment you're gone

I need you're loving and affection

So I want you to stay and you know that I'll do

Anything that you want me to

Can't afford to lose

Can't afford to lose your loving

I can't afford to lose

Can't afford to lose your loving

I can't afford to lose

Some people change their lovers and friends

Just like old shoes and cigarettes

Running around, their chase never ends

Always trying to find their match

No more illusions, got my feet on the ground

'Cause I'm chained by your attraction

I couldn't live alone, I want you around

Because I need your protection

So I beg you to stay and you know that I'll do

Anything that you want me to

Can't afford to lose

Can't afford to lose your loving

I can't afford to lose

Can't afford to lose your loving

I can't afford to lose
