You Had Me by Joss Stone

Beautiful British singer Joss Stone sings a heartbreak song, You Had Me, from her 2004 album Mind, Body & Soul.



The lyrics of You Had Me

You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind

Spitting in my eyes and I still see
Tried to keep me down
I'm breaking free
I don't want no part in your next fix
Someone needs to tell you
This is it

Hey
Listen you'll be missin'
Out on all my love and my kissing
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money you took mine

Chorus
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind
I've realized in time
that my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

You tried to trade on my naivete
But the things you do and say embarrass me
See once upon a time I was your fool
But the one I leave behind he is you

Hey
Listen you'll be missin'
Out on all my love and my kissing
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money you took mine

Chorus

Vodka and a packet of cigarettes
That's all it used to be but now
You're sniffing on snow when you're feeling low
Suffocating dreams that could have
Maybe for a minute I'd be down with that
But it didn't take long for me to see the light
You swore you had control of it
But when I stepped back you slipped on your supply

Chorus

Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business stressing all the time
Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

Chorus

Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business stressing all the time
Taking it back I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

The song has similarities to Take A Bow by Rihanna. But while Joss Stone is vegetarian and loves animals, meat-eating Rihanna loves dogs! Joss owns a rottweiler and a teacup poodle.

Joss Stone's latest album is Introducing Joss Stone. She's also starring in an upcoming movie Snappers, due for release in September 2008. Joss Stone has also experimented with her hair colors:

The blond Joss Stone helps sell milk for girls.....while the brunette Joss Stone gets a taste of Cadbury Flake

When her record company asked her to go back being a blond, Joss Stone defiantly colored her hair pink instead!
