When I Loved You Like That Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You lit me up
Just like a match
Then you burned me out
Just as fast
You flew me high
Just like a kite
Up in the air
Leaving me there
Alone in the sky


[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so complicated
Give me the world then take it back
When I loved you
When I loved you like that

[Verse 2]
You put my love in a bottle in the ocean
Thinking you could control the tide
Just so you could have the feeling
Of wanting me back one more time

I had held you like the morning
Holds the sun so carefully
I let you shine
So wild and free
So endlessly
I gave you every part of me

Coda
Now your walking on the city streets
And your cold and your all alone
The only thing keeping you company
Is the melody in your song
Keep singing it
Put a scotch on the rocks
And drink your misery down
Go home and make love to her
And picture me
Picture me
Yeah picture me
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
Yeah
