When You Loved Me

(专辑： Freewheelin' Woman - 2022)

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
On 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

Living with your memory now
It's being lost at sea now
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
