Gerald LeVert Taking Everything Lyrics

Mm
Took my heart
Took my car
Took my crib, my kids
Everything...unngh

Never thought you bring me so much pain...
Lord knows I tried to keep you happy girl in every way
Out on the road doing my thang
Trying to keep you laced
Trying to keep a smile upon your face girl
Was all my happiness in vain?
Or did I place in you a little too much faith?
Now nothing but memories
Never thought that this would be
The price I'd have to pay!

[Chorus]
You took my heart
you took my car
Up and took my crib
Got the nerve to take my kids
Got the nerve to take my kids
You took my love and my life
Girl you took my soul
Taking everything from me
Taking everything from me!!
You took my heart
Girl you took my car
And you took my crib
Trying to take my kids
Girl you took my love
Than you took my soul
taking everything everything everything
everything everything!!!

And now I'm sitting all alone
Trying to figure out where you and I went wrong
You know it makes me wanna cry
Just thinking about it makes me wanna lay down and die
For the life of me I don't know how
that you could take for granted
And disregard our sacred vows
Now nothing but memories
Never though that this would be the price I had to pay

Chorus
You took my heat girl you took my cars
trying to take my crib
got the nerve to take my kids
got the nerve to take my kids
and take my love an my life
girl you took my soul
you've taking everything from me
taking everything from me
you took my heart my pride
my crib my kids my love my soul
everything everything everything
everything everything

Now I ain't never been no fool
I've always tried to keep my cool
I was faithful and true
Never bruised you or used you
Even though sometimes you made me want to
But I loved you!!
You should try to understand
Girl I was your man
My life was in your hands baby
Was signing over all of this
Was it part of your plan
No no no no - what about the plans we had
now you're gone and I'm just gonna be a weekend Dad baby
Can I call you baby??
Or is that just a passing thing baby
Listen to the sad song I sing...
What about the ring??
What about the ring??

Ohhh Ohhh
Girl you drove away in my car...
Girl you can have the crib...
But won't you give me back my kids??!!
How am I supposed to live
Ohh baby without love, without love baby??
See you & me
All my life, All my life
I though we'd live forever
Said we'd be together
And you would never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, ever, ever leave me
You take my cars, crib, cars, kids
Love, Life, soul from me
Cars, cars, crib, kids my dear
And now you would never, never, never leave me!!!
Oohhh no!!!
Why, how could you!!??
You took everything....

Chorus
