Lyrics
Guess you never really know just what you've got
'Til you finally realize she could be gone
I know that I've been taking you for granted for the longest time
All you wanted was someone who really cares
And I didn't even notice you were there
I promise that I'll never ever make that same mistake, not twice
That was then, this is now, took some time to come around
All I wanna do
Is try again, show you how, I know that it's all about
Givin' attention to you
I was a fool for way too long
What you wanted, I could not see
That was then, this is now, took some time to figure out
Love is all you need
Yeah
Guess I never thought about it before
I was thinkin' of myself and nothing more
Didn't even wanna try to find out how you really feel (how you really feel)
Now I see that I'm the lucky one, it's true
What we got, you know, I never want to lose
I was trippin' in a fantasy and missing what was real
That was then, this is now, took some time to come around
All I wanna do (you know all I wanna do)
Is try again, show you how, I know that it's all about
Givin' attention to you (now)
I was a fool for way too long
What you wanted, I could not see
That was then, this is now, took some time to figure out
Love is all you need
I used to be someone who only really thought about themself
And no one else
And you could tell, baby (yeah, yeah)
But that's before I understood that when you got something this good
Gotta let her know
And I want you to know
You're always my priority
And I wanna give you more than all the love you need (everything you need)
Took a little time and now you know I finally see
That you're my world, yeah (and you know it)
I never want our love to fade
Ready, willing and I'm gonna do whatever it takes (whatever it takes)
No, I'm never gonna let it all slip away
'Cause you're my girl
Yes, you are
That was then, this is now, took some time to come around
All I wanna do
Is try again, show you how, I know that it's all about
Givin' attention to you
I was a fool for way too long
What you wanted, I could not see
That was then, this is now, took some time to figure out
Love is all you need (love is all you need)
You're always my priority
And I wanna give you more than all the love you need
Took a little time, but now you know I finally see
That you're my world
Yes, you are
I never want our love to fade
Ready, willing and I'm gonna do whatever it takes (now)
No, I'm never gonna let it all slip away
'Cause you're my girl
Yes, you are
That was then, this is now, took some time to come around
All I wanna do (gonna show you how it's done)
Is try again, show you how, I know that it's all about
Givin' attention to you
I was a fool for way too long
What you wanted, I could not see (what you wanted, I could not see)
That was then, this is now, took some time to figure out
Love is all you need
Comin' around and ready to show you how
I wanna change, girl
Baby, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
