I'm not loving you, the way I wanted to What I had to do, had to run from you
I'm in love with you but the vibe is wrong And that haunted me, all the way home
So you never know, never never know, Never know enough, 'til it's over love
'Til we lose control, system over-load Screamin' "No! No! No! N-No!"
I'm not loving you, the way I wanted to See I wanna move, but can't escape from you
So I keep it low, keep a secret code So everybody else don't have to know
* So keep your love locked down Your love locked down
Keepin' your love locked down Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down You lose
I'm not lovin' you the way I wanted to I can't keep my cool, so I keep it true
I got somethin to lose, so I gotta move I can't keep myself, and still keep you too
So I keep in mind, when I'm on my own Somewhere far from home, in the danger zone
How many times did I tell you for it finally got through You lose, you lose
I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to See I had to go, see I had to move
No more wasting time, you can't wait for life We’re just racin' time, where's the finish line
( * ) I'm not lovin' you the way I wanted to I bet no one knew, I got no one new
I know I said I'm through, but got love for you But I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to
Gotta keep it goin', keep the lovin' goin' Keep it on a roll, only God knows
If I be with you, baby I'm confused You choose, you choose
I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to Where I wanna go, I don't need you
I've been down this road, too many times before I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to
