The Love That You Had - Tracy Chapman

The love that you had

In your heart is gone

Any touch of sincerity

Any trace of compassion

What hardened your heart?

What turned it to stone?

What made you forget?

You were in love with someone

Your hands don’t reach out

Your voice doesn’t call me

I know you’ve stopped listening

Your eyes look straight through me

If nights are like this

I’d rather be alone

Who said you could forget

You were in love with someone?

Tell me what hardened your heart

Tell me what turned it to stone

Tell me what made you forget

You were in love with someone

Was I wrong to forgive

Your indiscretions?

Should I have been more hysterical

Less understanding?

If you’re looking for a villain

Go on assume the role

But don’t say that it’s my fault

That you’re not in love with someone

Tell me what hardened your heart

Tell me what turned it to stone

Tell me what made you forget

You were in love with someone

Tell me there’s someone in your life

I’ll fight to keep your for my own

Tell me because I really want to know

Why you can’t be in love with someone
