When Somebody Loved Me Lyrics
When somebody loved me
everything was beautiful
every hour spent together lives within my heart
and when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears
and when she was happy so was I
when she loved me
through the summer and the fall
we had each other
that was all
just she and I together
like it was meant to be
and when she was lonely
I was there to comfort her
and I knew that she loved me
so the years went by
I stayed the same but she began to drift away
I was left alone
still I waited for the day when she would say "I will always love you"
Lonely and forgotten
never thought she'd look my way
she smiled and held me just like she used to do
like she loved me
when she loved me
when somebody loved me
everything was beautiful
every hour spent together lives within my heart
when she loved me
everything was beautiful
every hour spent together lives within my heart
and when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears
and when she was happy so was I
when she loved me
through the summer and the fall
we had each other
that was all
just she and I together
like it was meant to be
and when she was lonely
I was there to comfort her
and I knew that she loved me
so the years went by
I stayed the same but she began to drift away
I was left alone
still I waited for the day when she would say "I will always love you"
Lonely and forgotten
never thought she'd look my way
she smiled and held me just like she used to do
like she loved me
when she loved me
when somebody loved me
everything was beautiful
every hour spent together lives within my heart
when she loved me

this song is full of emotion and passion. <<speaking out of toy story 2>> 2 friends very close, with each other through thick and thin...until one day when that all changes without a reason without an explanation, leaving one of them heartbroken. i relate to this song very well. what do you do when your best friend, your encourager, motivator, support and comfort just one day walks away for whatever reason? it takes a lifetime to accept it.
I wish someone would answer your question because it's mine too...

This songs has made me cry many times. I think it has two meanings. One is that from the movie. The other is that of a mother who's daughter grows up and apart from her.
Those 2 meanings do sound like good interpretations.

Since adult look the same as she's drift away (Grow up and have her own life) and the video saying that she's grow up and have her new life.

For me? I always imagine that she's brought my love return. Like a friends turn into lovers on the third verse!

As much as I love this song, I hate it as well, but not nearly as much. At the time, my boyfriend sung this song for a performance, and we were in the process of breaking up, and we ended up like two days later. It makes me cry just kinda thinking about how this song relates so perfectly...
To me, this song means like, two people were best best friends. One of them hadnt really expected anything less than that close relationship to ever come around. The other friend just kinda... fell away, leaving the other person there, who might be waiting for any sign of that relationship again
I can't watch Toy Story 2 without sobbing like a little bitch because of this song
Sarah McLachlan does write beautiful songs, but not this one. Randy Newman wrote it for toy story 2.
I can totally relate to this song. Sarah Mclachlan always writes the most pure and beautiful lyrics that always seem to speak to the heart.
this one always makes me cry.
especially as i was humming it on the way over to my boyfriends, not knowing i was to be dumped in about 10 minutes time.
ah memories!
this song is so sad!! it makes me cry as if i were a goddamn spriknler i mean damn what a beautiful song!!
Every time I watch this scene from Toy Story 2, I cry the same amount of tears, and I've seen the movie like five times (it seems to be a babysitting standard). Yes, it's a toy, but it's a toy with feelings! Haha.
This song is just so beautiful and heartbreaking. Sarah's voice is perfect for it.
ever think about all those little tiny hints in her songs about woman on woman love? I mean, i'm not saying she's gay or anything, but seriously, it's in a copuple songs. Always vague enough though, fun i think! always makes me chuckle...
