Song lyrics
Key: F major (if that interest anyone) 

I used to do it for the love a long time ago 
And all I ever wanted was love 
I used to love without fear a long time ago 
And all I ever wanted was love 
Then somebody came around and tried to hurt me 
Tried to make me feel like I was unworthy 
Took a pure love and tried to make it dirty 
Truth was they never did deserve me 
No! 

Chorus: 
I had to lose myself so I could love you better 
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could love you better 
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself 
So I could love you better 
Had to lose myself in love 
And that’s just the way it is… 

Couldn’t tell me I was love when I needed it 
When, all I ever wanted was love. 
Should a told me just me because! 
I’m worth receiving it 
But all I ever wanted was love 
There’s is something awkward about the selflessness it takes to 
Give love and the good that it makes you! 
True love can never really forsake you 
But it took a little while just for me to see! 

Chorus: 
I had to lose myself so I could love you better 
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could love you better 
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself 
So I could love you better 
Had to lose myself in love 
And that’s just the way it is… 

I had a paralyzing fear of facing failure 
And I couldn’t love you perfectly with fear in my head 
So I peerlessly had to face the danger 
So I could come back and love you whole instead 
All of your soul I said! 
So I could make it better 

Chorus: 
I had to lose myself so I could love you better 
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could love you better 
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself 
So I could love you better 
Had to lose myself in love 
And that’s just the way it is… 

B-Sec: 
And so it goes that I never meant to hurt you 
Couldn’t stay but I never meant to desert you 
Whole lot a things I just had to work thru 
Time to heal and restore myself worth too 
Confrontation of my fears and anxiety 
Cried a whole lot years I suffered quietly 
And though it may have taken years I can finally! 
Tell you that you were always on my mind! 

Chorus: 
I had to lose myself so I could make it better 
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could make it better 
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself 
So I could make it better 
Had to lose myself in love 
And that was just the way! 

Bridge: 

Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did 
Great love to absorb all the misuse I did 
Hey baby it’s not an excuse I give. 
And I’d do it all again because for you I live 

Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did 
Great love to absorb all the abuse I did 
Hey baby it’s not an excuse I give. 
And I’d do it all again because for you I live 

Chorus: 
I had to lose myself so I could make it better 
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could make it better 
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself 
So I could make it better 
Had to lose myself in love 
And that was just the way! 
And that was just the way it is…
