"I Would've Loved You Anyway" is a contemporary Country ballad about a relationship ending. A woman is reflecting over her relationship and its ultimate demise. She reveals that if she could have known how much pain the end of the relationship would bring, she still would have loved this person.
Music video
The music video for "I Would've Loved You Anyway" was made following the single's release. The video was filmed in Spain, to avoid using noticeable landmarks in Nashville or Hollywood backlots. The video begins with Yearwood in the back seat of a car, leaving the home of her lover. One particular scene showcases Yearwood and her lover having a conversation (presumably ending their relationship) on a majestic cliff overlooking a village and rolling hills. Yearwood is also featured singing alone in a traditional Spanish villa.
