I've Lost Everything I've Ever Loved letra

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
I was raised an only child
My folks died when I was four
They were trapped in a fire
Way up on the fourteenth floor

Well, my lovin' granny raised me
'Til I reached the age of ten
But the good Lord took her too
And left my dog Jeffy, my only friend

Oh baby
Seem like the odds are against me
Nothing works out right for me, ohh

I've lost everything I've ever loved
Honey, Honey, now I'm losing you, baby
I've lost everything I've ever loved
Honey, Honey, now I'm losing you, baby
Ohh, baby

So, all my love I gave to Jeffy
'Cause he was all i had right then
But the wheels of an automobile
Brought his life to a tragic end

From an orphan home to college
Thought I found true love in you
I felt sure we would marry
But your folks did not approve

Oh baby
Seem like the odds are against me
Nothing works out right for me, ohh

I've lost everything I've ever loved
now I'm losing you, oh
I've lost everything I've ever loved
Honey, Honey, now I'm losing you, baby
Ohh, baby

You accepted their decision
Without any type of defense
They said if we wait a few more years
That would make a little more sense

So we waited three or four
Everyday we kept in touch
But when we came face to face
You didn't love me quite as much

Oh baby
Seem like the odds are against me
Nothing works out right for me, ohh

I've lost everything I've ever loved
Baby, baby, bay, now I'm losing you,
I've lost everything I've ever loved
now I'm losing you
now I'm losing you

I've lost everything I've ever loved
(Every, every, everything, ever)
Now I'm losing you
(Honey, now I'm losing you)
