When You Love Someone
Drop N Harmony Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been a while since we've been apart
truth be told my knees they were trembling
I swear I felt like a little child
for she was more beautiful than ever
a healing sight to my own eyes
and the fact that we were together
never crossed my mind
So I asked her how she's been doing
Is she seeing someone new?
She replied her vibe was something was missing
and I'm thinking it might be you
That's when she put her arms around me
and laid her face on mine yeah
shortly thereafter she lifted her hand
and gently kissed my lips
CHORUS
Cause when you love someone,
truly love someone
No matter how hard you try
sometimes you can't let go
And if the one you love
should feel the same way in return
Then make the one you love yours forever
We talked all night well into morning
Catching up on days gone by
Before I left he said he had something to show me
and what he showed me brought tears to my eyes
All over his room were cards and pictures
reminicing the one world gone
then cheek to cheek he softly whispered
to you I dedicate my soul
Cause when you love someone,
truly love someone
No matter how hard you try
Sometimes you can't let go
And if the one you love
Should feel the same way in return
Then make the one you love yours forever
Suddenly I feel the sunlight shining down upon me
Like it never has before
From now on I promise that together we'll be
inseperable forever more
We'll make it better than it was before
When you love someone
no matter how hard you try
sometimes we can't let go
Cause when you love someone,
truly love someone
No matter how hard you try
sometimes you can't let go
And if the one you love
should feel the same way in return
Then make the one you love yours forever
My heart's found its way back home
My baby's never gonna have to worry
about a thing I'm down for him until the end
She's the love of my life

Out of the blue she came to see me
She visited me unexpectedly
It's been a while since we've been apart
We haven't seen each other for a long time
truth be told my knees they were trembling
Honestly, I was nervous
I swear I felt like a little child
I felt young and innocent
for she was more beautiful than ever
She was stunning beyond words
a healing sight to my own eyes
Seeing her brought solace to me
and the fact that we were together
Being together was all that mattered
never crossed my mind
It was unexpected and unplanned
So I asked her how she's been doing
I inquired about her well-being
Is she seeing someone new?
I asked if she's in a new relationship
She replied her vibe was something was missing
She felt incomplete or not whole
and I'm thinking it might be you
I thought she might miss me
That's when she put her arms around me
She hugged me tightly
and laid her face on mine yeah
She rested her cheek on mine affectionately
shortly thereafter she lifted her hand
She raised her hand softly
and gently kissed my lips
She gave me a tender kiss
CHORUS
Refrain of the song
We talked all night well into morning
We conversed until dawn
Catching up on days gone by
We talked about our past
Before I left he said he had something to show me
Before I left, he promised to show me something
and what he showed me brought tears to my eyes
I cried upon seeing what he revealed
All over his room were cards and pictures
There were cards and pictures all over his room
reminiscing the one world gone
Recalling the past world that doesn't exist anymore
then cheek to cheek he softly whispered
He leaned close and whispered lovingly
to you I dedicate my soul
I commit my whole being to you
Suddenly I feel the sunlight shining down upon me
I felt a sudden change in my life
Like it never has before
Different from anything I experienced
From now on I promise that together we'll be
We made a vow to be together
inseparable forever more
We will never be separated
We'll make it better than it was before
We will improve our relationship
My heart's found its way back home
I found love again
My baby's never gonna have to worry
My love won't have any reason to worry
about a thing I'm down for him until the end
I'll be there for my love forever
She's the love of my life
I'm deeply in love with her
