When I Loved You Like That

[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 and 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, yeah
I 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

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

[Verse 3]
Now you're walking in the city streets
And you're cold and you're all alone
The only thing keepin' you company
Is the melody in your song
Keep singing it
Pour your scotch on the rocks
And drink your misery down
Go home and make love to her and picture me, picture me
Yeah, picture me

[Bridge]
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
When I loved you like that
Oh

[Outro]
When I loved
When I loved
When I loved you like that
When I loved
When I loved
When I loved you like that
