You Were Loved, lyric by Whitney Houston

from the songs album The Preacher's Wife

We all wanna make a place in this world?
We all want our voices to be heard?
Every one wants a chance to be someone?
We all have dreams we need to dream?
Sweeter than any star you can reach?
Cuz when you reach and find, you've found someone?
You'll hold this world's most priceless thing?
The greatest gift this life can bring?
Is when you look back and know?
You were loved?

Chorus:?
You were loved by someone?
Touched by someone?
Held by someone?
Meant something to someone?
Loved somebody?
Touched somebody's heart?
Along the way?
You can look back and say (mm)?
You were loved (yes you were)?

You can have diamonds in your hands?
Have all the riches in the land?
But, without love,?
You don't really have a thing, no no?
When somebody cares that you're alive?
When somebody trusts you with their life?
That's when you'll know (huh)?
That you have all you need?
You'll hold this world's most priceless gift?
The finest treasure that there is?
You can look back and know?
You were loved?

Chorus:?
You were loved by someone?
Touched by someone?
Held by someone?
Meant something to someone?
Loved somebody?
Touched somebody's heart?
Along the way?
You can look back and say (mm)?
Yes, You were loved (yes you were now)?

Bridge:?
So many roads that you can take?
Whatever way you go?
Don't take that road alone?
It's better you should know?

Chorus:?
You were loved by someone?
Touched by someone?
Held by someone?
Meant something to someone?
Loved somebody?
Touched somebody's heart?
Along the way?
You can look back and say (mm)?
You did okay?
You were loved?

So remember to tell that special one (yeah, mm)?
You were loved?
You were loved?
You were loved?
You were loved?
Hey hey hey hey hey?
