(G. Perry/G. Johnson/E. Wayne)

The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself

As I look back on the day you left me
I felt that love had forsaken me
As time went by, tears began to dry
Now I see you never really cared
Life is wonderful when love is shared

The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself
The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself

Your love controlled, but never consoled me
I was in love, but so unhappy
So many nights, I was in the cold
When you left, you opened up the door
To a world I'd never seen before

The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself
The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself

[interlude]

I found love with someone who needs me
I'm loving life the way it should be
I gave you love, you only used me
And when you left, you hurt yourself
I found identity with someone else

The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself
The day that I lost you that's the day I found myself

Don't you know that you only hurt yourself
I'm so glad you're gone 'cause you made me strong
Oh, bless the day you left
'Cause that's the day I found myself
