Once I Loved

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
