Gretta Ray Loving Somebody Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was a pivotal moment, walking along clifftops
I try not to think about the second where I looked up
Saw him breaking
It'd been so hard when I was in America
He was a creature of comfort, loving me deep and blind
Forced our lives to intertwine, ignoring every flag and sign
It was sacred, we sure had heart
But trouble lay ahead of us, and so it faded out like it always does

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Nowadays I tend to go it alone
Down to the waterway closest to my home
And I heard he misses me around, for him letting me down
It put a chain on the door, but what is that good for?
[Chorus 1]
'Cause I may havе been burned, still I'll feel it return
The pull towards adoring is likе gravity to me
I may have been scorned, but I ache for that warmth
That comes with knowing one as well as you know family
And I know better than anyone who tells me so
Reopened wounds are all I'm gonna see But loving somebody made me happy
Loving somebody made me me

[Verse 2]
In the middle of August was when it all went south
I try not to think about the loss of love on his part
It is wretched to know yourself, solely when you are with someone else
And feeling like every card you had's been dealt

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So nowadays I'd rather go it alone
Down to the waterway closest to my home's where I go
And I know that for the first time, I'm finally doing fine
But there's a chain on the door, and what is that good for?

[Chorus 2]
I may have been burned, still I'll feel it return
The pull towards adoring you comes naturally to me
I may have been scorned, but I ache for that warmth
That comes with knowing one as well as you know family
And I know better than anyone who tells me so
I'm surely bound to repeat history
But loving somebody made me happy
Loving somebody made me me
