To Be LovedTrain

Songwriter: David Hodges Pat Monahan

Producer: David Hodges

[Verse 1]
Finally met Virginia on a slow summer night
Thought I should forgive you so I came back
You’re a sight for sore eyes
Right for those lies
They save me after all
Right from the beginning we were wrong I found
But no one did it better baby pound for pound
Those heavyweight fights were right for me
To learn how to see the light clearly
And it’s the light i see in you

[Chorus]
No, don’t go
I’ll show you what it’s like to be loved
No, don’t go
I’ll show you what it’s like to be loved
(ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
What it's like to be loved

[Verse 2]
Now that things are better for me
I can laugh at all your other lovers
When you do the math
Does it make you feel sad
Make you feel small?
Thank god it ain’t about me anymore
I'm not coming back for round two
I just wanna love you like a friend would do
You weren't wrong for the feelings you had
But the man that I was isn't coming back
So stay, it's OK

[Chorus]
No, don’t go
I’ll show you what it’s like to be loved
No, don’t go
I’ll show you what it’s like to be loved
(ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
What it's like to be loved

[Bridge]
When you said it's over
I lost my head
And now that we're older
I'm giving up on being right
So I can see the other side of you

[Chorus]
No, don't go
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
No, don't go
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
(ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
When you said it's over
What it's like to be loved
(ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
I lost my head
What it's like to be loved
And now that we're older
What it's like, what it's like to be loved

Train

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
