I Got What I Wanted
Brook Benton

When I go to all the places we used to go

When I see all the people we used to know

They ask me why I look so sad, I have to say

I got what I wanted but I lost what I had


Without your love I'm such a lonely man, that's what I am

And there's no one but myself to take the blame

Because I once had your love and I treated you so bad

I got what I wanted but I lost what I had


Since you've gone, the bright lights are dim

The people don't seem the same

They're so used to seeing us together

Oh, but my, how things have changed


I went searching, not knowing what I'd find

I looked for something and I had it all the time

Now to think I've treated you so bad, makes me sad

I got what I wanted but I lost [Incomprehensible] I had

I got what I wanted but I lost what I had
