"I Useta Lover" lyrics

"I Useta Lover"

I have fallen for another she can make her own way home
And even if she asked me now I'd let her go alone
But I use to see her up the chapel when she went to Sunday mass
And when she'd go to receive, I'd kneel down there and watch her pass
The glory of her ass

I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long, long time ago
I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long long time ago
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone

Do you remember her collecting for concern on Christmas eve?
Well she was on a forty eight hour fast, just water and black tea
And I walked right up and made an ostentatious contribution
And I winked at her to tell her I'd seduce her in the future
When she's feelin' looser

I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long, long time ago
I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long long time ago
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone

So now you know the truth of it, she's no longer my obsession
Though the thoughts and dreams I had of her would take six months in confession
See I met this young one Thursday night and she's into free expression
And her mission is to rid the world of this sinful repression
Then we had a session

I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long, long time ago
I used to love her, I used to love her once
A long, long time ago
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone
It's gone, all my lovin' is gone

Well, it's gone, long, long gone
All my lovin' is gone, long, long gone
All my lovin' is gone, long, long gone
All my lovin' is gone, long, long gone
I have fallen for another, she can make her own way home
