“Oh, you could have been lonely, for your one and only,
You could have loved me as much as I love you.”

"We Could Have Been Sweethearts (You Could Have Been Lonely)" from Spin of the Wheel (1990) · Video performance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srPQliLGM4I
Context: Well you could have been lonely every night now,
Could have cried a whole lot more, been a little bit blue

You could have loved me as much as I love you.

“I had a thought for no one's but your ears:
That you were beautiful, and that I strove
To love you in the old high way of love;”

W.B. Yeats (1865–1939) Irish poet and playwright

In The Seven Woods (1904), Adam's Curse http://poetry.poetryx.com/poems/1431/
Context: I had a thought for no one's but your ears:
That you were beautiful, and that I strove
To love you in the old high way of love;
That it had all seemed happy, and yet we'd grown
As weary-hearted as that hollow moon.
