Reba McEntire - I Know How He Feels Lyrics






When I heard that familiar voice
My heart stopped dead in its tracks
Across the room I could see him there
A ghost from my past
But he's too caught up to notice me
She must be his new love
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much
It's just

I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh, how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes its real
Oh, I've been there
(And) I know how he feels

As long as I kept him out of sight
I kept from goin' out of my mind
Tried to believe that leavin' him
Was somehow justified
But tonight there's no denying
What a love like his is worth
He once looked at me
The way he's lookin' at her
What a lucky girl

I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh, how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes its real
Oh, I've been there
(And) I know how he feels

And it's killin' me
Oh, I know how he feels

  20. M.... S....

    I am a guy, but I get tears in my eyes when I listen to this song. It reminds me a former love, of course. Time and distance ended that affair, but I think we will be in love for the rest of our days in spite of hurtful events.

  21. D.... M....

    Ok reminds me of my ex

  22. M.... S....

    I saw her in concert my kids got me the tickets best birthday present ever fantastic voice!!

    Her hair was totally 80’s lol her hair got bigger in the 90’s

  28. K.... P....

    Reba hair lots ove hairspray

  29. M.... S....

    This song tears me up every time I listen. The lyrics are so true and I miss my former love. Good thing is I don't live in same area, so I don't have to see her with another beau. I try to only remember the good times and not dwell on the bad.

  30. m.... r....

    beautiful song

  31. D.... A....

    Had such a crush on her when I was 13. I have such a crush on her at 41 😎

  32. T.... C....

    I'm probably one of the few people on earth who thinks there is absolutely nothing wrong with 80's hair. lol and Reba did it so well.

  33. c.... 7....

    Sometimes hurting like this is just what I needed to know the truth and realize I don't have to be the fool and ass of his jokes. How pathetic he must think I am. I'll never forget how this hurt feels

  34. J.... P....

    She is Queen country I like her best my friend I love outfit

  69. N.... B....

    I think this song is awesome! It's a tear-jerker, but she still did a wonderful job on it for sure! "As long as I kept him out of sight, I kept from going out of my mind" is one of my favorite lyrics & I apply that to my everyday life! Ha Ha!

  70. A.... R....

    I remember that song and was looking for it so long wow reba love yes

  71. A.... L....

    A true female country singer & artist . oh how I wish music was like this still.

  72. K.... G....

    Ilove reba great singer

  73. A.... B....

    This is when country was country.

  74. C.... G....

    Reba is the most beautiful and powerful woman in country music , I would be the happiest man in the world to marry her

  75. M.... S....

    I don't remember this song when it first came out and discovered it only when I bought her greatest hits album recently. I am a guy and yet this song makes me tear up every time I hear it. I had a love long ago of many years and this song reminds me of that relationship. I was transferred out of state and that was the beginning of the end of us. We had our ups and downs, but her touch was warm and her kiss was soft. I wish her well, but I think we never got over each other and never will.

  76. B.... S....

    REBA...!! I LOVE YOU..!! I ALWAYS WILL..!!
