I had a hundred dollar ring in my hand So weak and tired I could barely stand From bein' up all night praying she'd say, "Yes" So with a hopeful heart I hit one knee With a tear in her eye she looked at me It was the moment of truth, I was scared to death My life hung on what that tear meant Then she smiled at me, and I lost it No one can make me cry, make me laugh Make me smile or drive me mad, like she does It's like a curse that is the cure Better or worse, one thing's for sure It's real love and I don't know what I'd do if I lost it Well the honeymoon ended and life began Jobs and bills, losing touch with friends And that apartment got smaller everyday Then one night the walls finally closed in I came home late, she said, "Where have you been You used to call and tell me you're on your way" She said, "If this is how it's gonna be then I quit" She walked out the door, I lost it No one can make me cry, make me laugh Make me smile or drive me mad, like she does It's like a curse that is the cure Better or worse, one thing's for sure It's real love and I don't know what I'd do if I lost it I picked myself up off the floor She walked back through the door We made love like it was the first time No one can make me cry, make me laugh Make me smile or drive me mad, like she does It's like a curse that is the cure Better or worse, one thing's for sure It's real love and I don't know what I'd do if I lost it Oh if I lost it (If I lost it) I don't wanna lose it
