When some bod y loved me,
ev ’ry thing was beau ti ful.
Ev ’ry hour we spent to geth er lives with in my heart.
And when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears; and when she was hap py, so was I,
when she
loved
me.
Through the sum mer and the fall, we had each oth er, that was all.
Just she and I to geth er, like it was meant to be.
And when she was lone ly,
I was there to com fort her, and I knew
that
she
loved
me.
So the years went by; I stayed the same.
But she be gan to drift a way; I was left a lone.
Still I wait ed for the day
when she’d say, “I
will al ways love
you.”
Lone ly and for got ten,
nev er thought she’d look my way, and she smiled at me and held me just like she used to do,
like she loved
me
when she loved
me.
When some bod y loved me,
ev ’ry thing was beau ti ful.
Ev ’ry hour we spent to geth er lives with in my heart,
when she
loved
me.
