Never Meant to Be Lyrics by Samantha Mumba

Gotta Tell You (New Version)

2000

[Verse 1]
I remember when I still believed the things you said
Never would have thought that this would come to an end
How was I to know that you had another, someone new?
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I recall the days, loved you in a million ways
Suddenly, you and me, from friends to history
I realize my trust ain't coming back no more
[Chorus]
'Cause my love for you will always last eternally
You are in my heart, I loved you from the start
Baby, it's hard to believe that you and I were never meant to be
[Verse 2]
Does anybody know this feeling of despair?
When you really love someone, when you really care
It's hard to walk away when I really wanna stay with you
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Does anybody know it tears you up inside
When you try to decide between what's wrong and right?
Gotta know for sure, my trust ain't coming back no more
[Chorus]
'Cause my love for you will always last eternally
You are in my heart, I loved you from the start
Baby, it's hard to believe that you and I were never meant to be
[Bridge]
Oh, oh-oh
[Chorus]
'Cause my love for you will always last eternally
You are in my heart, I loved you from the start
Baby, it's hard to believe that you and I were never meant to be
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
That you and I were never meant to be
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That you and I were never meant to be
