Beloved is a song that describes the loss of a lover and how much Elijah Blake wishes he could have her back and tell her that he loves her. He can’t cope with her death and he is imagining a scenario in which he could see his beloved again. This song was recognized by Frank Ocean.
[Verse One]
If heaven opened up its gates
Just for one day, so I can see the face
Of my beloved, the one who went away
Oh how i'd tell you, that you're appreciated
[Chorus]
My beloved, I hate that you’re so far away
My beloved, so many things I wanna say
Ain’t no love like your love
‘cause you died, before I
Could say I love you, my beloved
[Verse Two]
They say the greatest love is in your face
And I knew you love me, though we've never been off the rails
Wonder what i'd do if, I had the chance to take your place
How I wish I could hold you and tell you face to face
[Chorus]
My beloved, I hate that you’re so far away
My beloved, so many things I wanna say
Ain’t no love like your love
‘cause you died, before I
Could say I love you, my beloved
