Lyrics
You Had To Get A Little (To Lose A Lot)
By Shirley Goines and Christina Meyer
Verse
I was feeling kinda frisky
Waiting for you to come home
Thinking about what I'll do
To make you never want to roam
Surfing thru the channels
Just to waste some time
But the breaking news about you and her
Blew my mind, and I just have to know
Chorus
Was the grass greener on the other side
Was it trimmed in gold
Worth all those lies
Was it that good, was it that hot
You had to get a little to lose a lot
What did she do that I haven't done
What a fool to think I was the only one
Was it that good was it that hot
You had to get a little to lose a lot
Verse 2
It was only yesterday
You made me come alive
When you took me in your arms
Said baby, I'll always be your guy
You were really
Just an undercover lover
Leaving a string of broken hearts
But you've been discovered, and I just have to know
Chorus
Bridge
It's hard to believe
Our love was a lie
You weren't the guy
You pretended to be
But time heals all wounds
And I'll get over you
Chorus
