Darren Ockert - You Were Loved lyrics

I said a few things I didn't mean Lost my mind a few times between But I'd be lying through my teeth if I said I not hurting I feel like I could suffocate, And no amount of pills can alleviate This feeling that I get when I'm without you Well I hope you can forgive me and please try to carry on But there's one thing that is certain now you're gone Just know that you were loved Know that these were words not lightly shared with you Know that you were loved They say it's better to have loved and lost If only I had known that I was loved by you I still don't know where we went wrong But I'm tired of singing the same old song Now I'm searching my soul to find some reason The dreams and plans we should have had How do I go on now they've all gone? There's a hole in my life that's getting deeper I was certain time would heal this but it grows stronger every day Un-reciprocal devotion all the way Just know that you were loved Know that these were words not lightly shared with you Know that you were loved They say it's better to have loved and lost If only I had known that I was loved by you No matter where I run to it's hard to face, When this city calls your name And every time I'm holding someone new, Just feels like I'm holding you again As confusing as it seems to you, To me it's clear as day with the sun shining through So open up your eyes look into mine babe, ‘Cause don't you know that you were loved Know that these were words not lightly shared with you Know that you were loved They say it's better to have loved and lost If only I had known that I was loved by you
