When I Loved Her - Ray Price

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 belong

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 a measure of a man

And we seemed to fit together when I held her in my arms

And it left me feeling warm when I found her.

'Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun

She made what I was doing seem worthwhile

It’s the closest thing to living that I guess I’ve ever known

And it made me want to smile when I loved her.

I know some of us were born to cast our fortunes 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

She made what I was doing seem worthwhile

It’s the closest thing to living that I guess I’ve ever known

And it made me want to smile when I loved her.

And it made me want to smile when I loved her…
