Should've Been Loving You
by Jonathan Pierce

Album: Sanctuary

I spent most of my life looking for acceptance
I never found what I was looking for
I was searching for love, I just needed some affection
All I got just left me wanting more
Left me feeling cold and lonely on the inside
With nothing to show, but I had plenty to hide

I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Should've been giving You something in return
For the love You've shown
I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Your love for me was always true
I should've been loving You

The lonely life doesn't have its advantages, no, no
It just leaves you hurting all the time
And I can safely say, I have found a better way
It's acceptance of a greater kind
I remember when Your love came shining in my lonely life
Looking back on all the love I've thrown away I realize

I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Should've been giving You something in return
For the love You've shown
I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Your love for me was always true
I should've been loving You

No greater love has any man ever known
So that I could live my life, You laid down Your own

Should've been loving You, ooh...
Should've loved You with all of my life, yeah
(Should've been loving)
I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You, oh...

I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Should've been giving You something in return
For the love You've shown
I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Your love for me was always true

I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Should've been giving You something in return
For the love You've shown
I should've been loving You
I should've been praising You
Your love for me was always true
I should've been loving You
