(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)
Some things you never get used to
It`s the same routine of getting up every morning
And putting on a smile
But underneath there`s another person
Who can`t find a reason to make living worthwhile
Ah, another day to get through
Without the love that once was mine
Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end
And then something brings them all back again
Like wanting you and like having you
I`ll never get used to
I`ve gotten used to not listing
For familiar sounds you used to make
Now I`m trying to get out of the habit
Of calling your name first thing when I awake
Look here !
It`s like a child`s first step
I have to learn to walk all, all over again
`Cause you were always there if I should fall
And now there`s nobody else that I can call
It`s like wanting you and not having you
I`ll never get used to
Lost in a cloud
I think I caught a glimpse of you
Blindly I rush to touch your hand, huh!
To discover it`s my mind
Playing tricks on me again
Tricks on me again
Some things you never get used to
Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end
And then something brings them all back again
Like wanting you and like having you
I`ll never get used to
It`s wanting you and like having you
I`ll never get used to
Look here !
Like wanting you and like having you
I`ll never get used to
