I Could Never Love Another (After Loving You) Lyrics

Girl, I can't believe my ears!
Are you really telling me goodbye?
See, you've taken away my reason for livin'
And you won't even tell me why
Before you walk out the door
There's something I want you to know

CHORUS:
I could never love another after loving you
(I could never love another)
No other love will I share
'Cause there's no one to compare
(after loving you)

It was only yesterday
Your words are still fresh in my mind
I remember you said:
Long as rivers flow
Each day you'd love me more
Now you wanna leave me behind
I don't know what it's gonna take to make you stay
I just know I've got to find a way, 'cause...

(chorus)

Oh baby, please stay beside me
I'm a sweet-talkin' guy
Oh! Baby, baby, baby
(I could never love another after loving you)
(I could never love another after loving you)

It was only yesterday...

On my bended knees
I beg you to stay here with me
Oh! Baby, baby, baby, baby

(repeat chorus and fade)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
