after love lyrics

I'm used to him all around
Feelin' kinda stuck these days because of you
And I'd be on the highway
If only I could leave my place because of you

I used to be on top
But I ain't got nothin' better to say because of you
And I've been tryin' to hide it
But it's written all over my face

So I, I really thought you were the one, the only one
I guess that I was wrong
But it turned out you weren't it, the opposite
Of everything I thought

What do you do after love?
What can you say when it's said and done
'Cos you can't hide a heartbreak
When you can't stop these tears from fallin' down
So what do you do? What do you do after love?
After love, after love, after love, after love

I remember first day that I saw her face
The feelin' I had, sorta felt like my birthday
Beautiful, I must say, she was my earthquake
Cute face, nice shape, she made my earth shake

I'ma try and keep the faith, do it like the church say
She the one for me and I don't care what him or her say
Thought I had a home run but I'm just at first base
I found out in the long run, just another heartbreak

So how much can my heart take? You was like air to me
You know I wouldn't leave, I needed you to breath
See life is but a dream, so is love and I believe
If you ever been in love, you would know what I mean

So Lord, help me please, I wanna see the light
She keep tellin' me I'm wrong but I know I'm right
I'm tryin' to ignore her 'cos I don't wanna fight
I know I make mistakes but still I need her in my life

Tell me how I'm supposed to heal this open wound
And tell me who would've thought that I'd be tryin' to get over you
I'm stuck in the moment of memories of me and you
And I can get over it but I ain't sure if I want to

Because you done made your bed
Now you gotta lie in it
Now all the things you said
Don't mean a thing

I can't believe I gave you one last shot
I let it ride, now baby, it's your stop
Oh, so silly, now the joke's on me
It took a while to finally come to my senses

What do you do after love?
What can you say when it's said and done?
'Cos you can't hide a heartbreak
And you can't stop these tears from fallin' down
So what do you do? What do you do after love? After love

But this is what you need to do, pay attention
'Cos you know who I'm talkin' to and I know you listenin'
I think about you all the time, if not every minute
I promise hurtin' you was never my intentions

There's somethin' 'bout your style, the way that you present it
Every fantasy I ever had, you was in it
I apologize for every time that you might've cried
There's not enough words to describe how I feel inside

Guardian angel, sent from the skies
I always knew you would have made a beautiful bride
And that's why I wish you could've stayed, so much
But I fucked up and went and betrayed your trust

You know there's no more Dolce & Gabbana
Gucci, Prada, trips to Nevada
And I admit what you heard is probably true
But outta all these girls, the only one I loved was you
