There are many who have laid with me
Then got up and walked away from me
And played around with me like I was a game
Every night was a one-night fling
And when I'd given them everything
They never even asked me for my name
God, they never even asked me for my name
Now, I've found real love
Make no mistake about it
'Cause now that I feel love
I just can't live without it
So if you love me
The way I love you
Why can't we spend our lives as one?
My reputation was all over town
As a woman who was passed around
And I knew every wrong way to go
Seen every room with a bed inside it
And every habit they've tried, I tried it
But from now on, I say, "Hell no"
Oh, from now on, I say, "Hell no"
Oh, now that I've found love
I just can't live without it
Now that I feel love
Make no mistake about it
So if you love me
The way I love you
Oh, why can't we spend our lives as one?
