Brook Benton - I Got What I Wanted lyrics

rate me

When I go to all the<br />

Places we used to go<br />

When I see all the<br />

People we used to know<br />

<br />

They ask me<br />

Why I look so sad<br />

I have to say<br />

I got what I wanted<br />

But I lost what I had<br />

<br />

Without your love<br />

I'm such a lonely man<br />

That's what I am<br />

And there's no one but<br />

Myself to take the blame<br />

<br />

Just to think<br />

I've treated you so bad<br />

Makes me sad<br />

I got what I wanted<br />

But I lost what I had<br />

<br />

Since you've gone<br />

The bright lights are dim and<br />

The people don't seem the same<br />

They're so used to seeing us together<br />

Oh, but my, how things have changed<br />

<br />

I went searching<br />

Not knowing what I'd find<br />

I looked for something<br />

When I had it all the time<br />

<br />

Now to think I've treated you<br />

So bad, makes me sad<br />

I went out and got what I wanted<br />

But I lost what I had<br />

<br />

I got everything that I wanted<br />

But I lost what I had<br />

I got what I wanted<br />

But I lost everything I had...
