"Once I Loved" lyrics - DAMIEN RICE

DAMIEN RICE
"Once I Loved"

Once I loved
And I gave so much love to this love
It was the world to me

Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud And let you say goodbye

Then one day
From my infinite sadness you came And brought me love again
Now, now I know
That no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go
I will hold you close, night and day
Because love is the saddest thing when it goes away

Now I know
That no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go
I will hold you close, I'll make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing when it goes away
Love is the saddest thing when it goes away

The saddest thing when it goes away

"What is love?"
