When She Loved Me
John Tesh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
And when she was sad
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy
So was I
Through the summer and the fall
We had each other that was all
Just she and I together
Like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely
I was there to comfort her
And I knew
That she loved me
So the years went by
I stayed the same
But she began to drift away
I was left alone
Still I waited for the day
When she'd say
I will always love you
Through the summer and the fall
We had each other that was all
Just she and I together
Like it was meant to be
Lonely and forgotten
Never thought she'd look my way
Then she smiled at me
And held me just like she used to do
Like she loved me
When she loved me
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
Like she loved me
When she loved me

Life was beautiful with the presence of love
Everything was beautiful
Love made everything beautiful
Every hour we spent together
The time spent together was a cherished memory
Lives within my heart

I was there to comfort her
I made sure she felt my presence and support
And I knew
I was confident that
That she loved me
She truly cared for me
So the years went by
As the time passed
I stayed the same
I didn't change my feelings for her
But she began to drift away
She started to pull away from me
I was left alone
She left me alone
Still I waited for the day
I hoped that someday
When she'd say
She would express the words
I will always love you
Her love for me would never fade
Lonely and forgotten
I was left alone and neglected
Never thought she'd look my way
I never expected her to come back to me
Then she smiled at me
She looked at me with warmth and kindness
And held me just like she used to do
She embraced me like she did when she loved me
Like she loved me
She made me feel loved again
When somebody loved me
When I had her love
Everything was beautiful
Life was a beautiful experience
Every hour we spent together
Every moment spent together was worth it
Lives within my heart
Those memories will always be with me
Like she loved me
Just like the way she used to love me
When she loved me
When she truly loved me
