Released: November 8, 2000

Songwriter: Cher

My heart cried out for you
Over an ocean
And your pain cried out for me
Across a wave

You stood half dead
Numb to any emotion
'cause you were a prisoner
And I was a slave

We'd both stopped searching for
Any acceptance
And rejection always was our bitter pill
'cause, I have no precious gifts to give you...
I only have four words
Darling I love you...
I love you
Still

I never thought someone would ever see
Or make a prisoner of my heart
But like a warrior dressed in armor
You carved your name in it
Right from the start...

You held my soul a hostage
In your tower on the hill
And all I pray for when I sleep...
Or lay awake
Is that you love me
Still ...

My heart cried out for you over an ocean
And your pain cried out for me across a wave
'cause we hid half dead
Numb to any emotion
Now you are my prisoner
And I am your slave

We'd both stopped searching for any acceptance
Rejection had always been our bitter pill
And I have no precious gifts to give you...
Oh, I only have these words
Darling I love you...
I love you...
Still

Oh baby I love you
I love you... still
Oh baby I love you - still
Baby I love - still
I love you still

Oh baby I love you
I love you... still
Oh baby I love you - still
Baby I love - still
I love you still

Cher

Cher is an American singer, songwriter, actress, model, fashion designer, television host, comedian, dancer, businesswoman, philanthropist, author, film producer, director, and record producer.

Cher gained popularity in 1965 as one-half of the folk rock husband–wife duo Sonny & Cher after their first hit, “I Got You Babe”. She began her solo career simultaneously, releasing in 1966 her first million-seller song, “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”. After the duo had lost its young audience owing to their monogamous, anti-drug lifestyle during the period of the sexual revolution and the rise of the drug culture, she returned to stardom in the 1970s as a television personality with her shows The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, watched by over 30 million viewers weekly during its three-year run, and Cher. She became a fashion trendsetter by wearing elaborate outfits on her television shows. While working on television, she established herself as a solo artist with the number-one singles “Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves”, “Half-Breed”, and “Dark Lady”. After her divorce from Sonny Bono in 1975, Cher’s much-publicized personal life led to a decline in her career, although she launched a minor comeback in 1979 with the disco-oriented album Take Me Home and earned $300,000 a week for her 1980–1982 residency show in Las Vegas.

In the early 1980s, Cher made her Broadway debut, and then starred in the film Silkwood. Her performance earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1983. In the ensuing years, she starred in films such as Mask, The Witches of Eastwick, and Moonstruck. She made her directorial debut in the 1996 film If These Walls Could Talk. At the same time, she established herself as a rock singer by releasing platinum albums such as Heart of Stone (1989) and top-ten singles such as “I Found Someone” and “If I Could Turn Back Time”. She reached a new commercial peak in 1998 with the song “Believe”, which features the pioneering use of Auto-Tune, also known as the “Cher effect”. Her 2002–2005 Living The Farewell Tour ended up as the highest-grossing music tour by a female artist then. In 2008, she signed a $60 million per-year deal to headline the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for three years. After seven years of absence, she returned to film in the 2010 musical Burlesque. Cher’s first studio album in 12 years, Closer to the Truth, became her highest-charting solo album in the U.S. to date.
