When You Loved Me Songtext
von Jewel

I look to the west
The sun blinds me
I shade my eyes
Your gaze finds me
I lose my breath

She looks at you
My head reels
You look back
You make her feel
Like I used to

I recall when you first touched me
Haunted by your face above me

You, it was always you
With your broken crown
Touched me like holy ground
And I, so eager to believe
So sincere, so naive
Back when you loved me


I look to the sky
Small birds fly
In a black line
One falls behind
I hear it cry

The sun shines through
Your water glass, it lights up her dress
It magnifies what I regret

I recall when you first touched me
Haunted by your face above me

You, it was always you
With your broken crown
Touched me like holy ground
And I, so eager to believe
So sincere, so naive
Back when you loved me, oh

Living with your memory now, oh
It′s being lost at sea now, oh
It's dragging me
It′s dragging me
Dragging me down


You, it was always you
With your broken crown
Touched me like holy ground
And I, consumed with poetry
The kind that brought me to my knees
Back when you loved me

I look to the west
I hope that bird has found its way
The sun slips away
