We all make a place in this world
|
We want our voices to be heard
|
Everyone wants the chance to be someone
|
We all have dreams we need to dream
|
Sweeter than any star you can reach
|
'Cause when you reach and find you've found someone
|
|
You'll hold this world's most priceless thing
|
The greatest gift this life can bring
|
'Cause when you look back and know you were loved
|
|
You are loved by someone
|
Touched by someone
|
Held by someone
|
Mean't something to someone
|
Loved somebody
|
Touched somebody's heart along the way
|
You can look back and say
|
You were loved
|
|
You can have diamonds in your hand
|
Have all the riches in the land
|
But, without love, you don't really have a thing (no, no)
|
Will somebody care that you're alive
|
Will somebody trust you with their life
|
That's when you'll know (heh)
|
That you have all you need
|
|
You'll hold this world's most priceless gift
|
The finest treasure that there is
|
'Cause you can look back and know you are loved, oh
|
|
HOOK
|
|
So many roads that you can take
|
Whatever way you go, don't take that road alone
|
It's better you should know you are
|
|
You are loved by someone
|
Touched by someone
|
Held by someone
|
Mean't something to someone
|
Loved somebody
|
Touched somebody's heart along the way
|
You can look back and say
|
You did okay
|
You were loved
|
|
So remember to tell that special one
|
You are loved
|
You are loved
|
You are loved
|
You are loved
|
|

You Were Loved
