Must Have Been Love

[hotjams]

Must Have Been LoveYou’ll never know The many times I cried outYour name as I’m driving this roadAnd I’m thinking aboutAll the times that I held you In my arms so tightWhere did our love go?Blue were her eyesLike a warm summer skyBlue is the feeling I feel tonightDon’t hear the laughterOnly the painWhere did our love go?ChorusAnd this roadStretches out aheadAnd the skyIs sinking to redAnd I love youEven now……Baby how I wish You would walk through my doorCause I never hurt like thisNo, no, noMust have been loveMust have been loveI have always been a tough oneI don’t mind a fightBut I never hurt Like I hurt that nightWhen she told me She was leavingSeeing somebody newI couldn’t hide My tears this timeAnd this roadStretches out aheadAnd the skyIs sinking to redAnd I love youEven now…Baby how I wish You would walk through my doorCause I never hurt like thisNo, no, noMust have been loveMust have been loveMust have been love

one thing came to mind, if she ever did walk through your door, you wouldn't be there cause you'd be driving on that road, maybe he secretly knows it would never work and is deliberately never there.. just my interpretation but I see nothing wrong with it meter and rhyme wise

I had thought about that, how can she walk in the door if he's driving down the road, but I think "walk through my door " is a more of a metaphor. Thanks for the input, it's appreciated.

The only thought I had was that you switched from telling her how you feel to talking to someone else a couple of times in the song. ("Blue were her eyes..." and "When she told me she was leaving...") I think I would have changed it to "blue are your eyes... " and "when you told me you were leaving..." so that I spoke to my lost love the whole time through. Just a thought. It works as it is now as well.~ Lydia

Hi Lydia I think I will adopt those changes, thanks for the input, it's appreciated.

Glad I could help. Do you have music to it already? I would love to hear it.~ Lydia

Hey, HJ....I think these lyrics are good....maybe people have some points about some of the confusion they talked about, but I got the song. I too would love to hear this put to a melody.I really like the lines:And the sky Is sinking to redBeautiful writing there.

Thanks Chits..... I wrote the music but I have not recorded it, it's a cowboy waltz 3/4 time...medium tempo. I'm not a good singer, I even bought Melodyne, it made me sound like Robert Smith from the Cure ...not sure how that happened I dont have a high voice.
