I once knew a girl
In the years of my youth
With eyes like the summer
All beauty and truth

In the mourning I fled
Left a note and it read
Someday you will be loved

I cannot pretend that I felt any regret
Cause each broken heart will eventually mend
As the blood runs red down the needle and thread
Someday you will be loved

You'll be loved, you'll be loved
Like you never have known
And the memories of me will seem more like bad dreams
Just a series of blurs like I never occurred
Someday you will be loved

You may feel alone
When you're falling asleep
Every time tears roll down your cheek
But I know your heart belongs
To someone you've yet to meet
Someday you will be loved

You'll be loved, you'll be loved
Like you never have known
And the memories of me will seem more like bad dreams
Just a series of blurs like I never occurred
Someday you will be loved

You'll be loved, you'll be loved
Like you never have known
And the memories of me will seem more like bad dreams
Just a series of blurs like I never occurred
Someday you will be loved

Someday you will be loved

    I think he left a relationship when he was young because he just didn't have feelings for her anymore, and he didn't regret doing it because he's a lot happier now, but he doesn't have anything against her either and he feels bad for breaking her heart so he reassures her that there is someone out there better than him who will actually be able to return her feelings.
