Píseň: When You Were Loving Me

Interpret:
Kenny Rogers
Album:
Back Home Again
I stopped by the house 
we called our home
It was a little rundown, 
the grass was overgrown
It's screen door was opening 
with the wind
I thought I heard you 
called my name again


I wish that I could 
hold on to the past
'Cause everything is 
changing way too fast
I can't help but long 
for how it used to be
When you were here 
and you were loving me


I finally got the nerve 
to go inside
I made it to our bedroom 
door and cried
I always thought that we 
could come back home
These empty rooms just 
prove that I was wrong


I wish that I could 
hold on to the past
'Cause everything is 
changing way too fast
I can't help but long 
for how it used to be
When you were here 
and you were loving me


I can't help but long 
for how it used to be
When you were here 
and you were loving me
