When I Loved Her

Well, she didn't look as pretty as some others I have known And she wasn't good at conversation when we were alone But she had a way of making me believe that I belonged And it felt like coming home, when I found her 'Cause she seemed to be so proud of me just walking holding hands And she didn't think that money was the measure of a man And we seemed to fit together when I held her in my arms And it left me feelin' warm, when I loved her 'Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun And she made what I was doin' seem worth while It's the closest thing to living that I guess I've ever known And it made me wanna smile, when I loved her I know some of us were born to cast our fortune to the winds And I guess, I'm bound to travel down a road that never ends But I know I'll never look upon the likes of her again And I'll never understand why I lost her 'Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun And she made what I was doin' seem worth while It's the closest thing to living that I guess I've ever known And it made me wanna smile, when I loved her
