have you ever
Lucy Hale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, yeah, oh

Sometimes it's wrong to walk away
Though you think it's over
Knowing there's so much more to say

Suddenly the the moments gone
And your dreams are upside down
If I could only change the way the world goes round

Tell me have you ever loved and lost somebody
Wish I had the chance to say I'm sorry can't you see
That's the way I feel about you and me baby
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking
Looking down the road you could be taking
I should know
'Cause I loved and lost the day I let you go

Can't help but think that this wrong
We should be together
Back in your arms were I belong

Now I finally realized
It was forever that I found (forever that I found)
I'd give it all to change
The way the world goes round

Tell me have you ever loved and lost somebody
Wish I had the chance to say I'm sorry can't you see
That's the way I feel about you and me baby
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking
Looking down the road you could be taking
I should know
'Cause I loved and lost the day I let you go

I really want to hear you say that you know just how it feels
To have it all and let it slip away, can't you see?
Even though the moment's gone (Moment's gone)

I'm still holding on somehow
Wishing I could change the way the world goes round

Have you ever loved and lost somebody?
Wish had the chance to say I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
Can't you see?
(Oh-Oh) That's the way, I feel about you and me Baby
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking
Looking down the road you could be taking
I should know (I should know)
'Cause I loved and lost the day I let you go




Yes I loved and lost, the day I let
Yes I loved and lost, the day I let you go

@whittosjuju

This is a cover of Have You Ever by the 90's music group "S Club 7", and was sang by her (the winner of American Juniors) and the Top 4 from that show. She was about 13 at the time. The other songs she's sang have been from movies, so she has no choice what the lyrics are. I personally feel her vocie is amazing, which makes the songs just as amazing. But that's your opinion.

@zatindimizahre

She is my favourite till now, but, she doesn't have another new songs..😔😔

@mayak2794

@Meredith.M
