To Have Loved You (I Still Do) Lyrics

I have loved you for eighthundred-fifty-four days

Some may say that's short

To me it felt like ages

I have loved you since the

Moment I laid eyes on yours

Maybe I was just hallucinating

We'd hold hands quietly

While we walked to the grocery store

Some say silence tells you

More than a thousand words

What do you talk about

When you have

Nothing in common but your feelings

If it stays like this

I will need infinite years of healing

My mother said that if it's right you'll know

The books all state that if love finds you

It will never let you go

But if that's true then why do I

Feel so empty inside

The seeds we planted in the garden

Didn't live before they died

Our hands empty except for our hands

Our words few and far between

I guess what you need at twenty-one

Is different from what you wanted at nineteen

Some may say that this was a mistake

But if that's true

Then to have loved you

Is the best mistake I've ever made

Yes to have loved you is the best mistake I'll ever make
