You told me to leave
Polite, but sharp like a clean cut
Said I deserve someone better
I know it too — that you’re the reason I’m hurting
Hate me for wanting to stay — I’d understand
I’m struggling too, just like you
Nights I don’t sleep, I cry like a child
But I know this pain
Only exists because love was real
If you weren’t here, it wouldn’t hurt at all
If I didn’t love you
It wouldn’t ache like this
Wouldn’t care where you are
Or what you’re doing right now
I know it’s hard for you to see me breaking
But I still don’t want to let you go
I don’t want this to be the end
Because I still love you
If you were just someone ordinary
Your words, your silence
Wouldn’t tear me down like this
A single look from you
Wouldn’t decide my whole day
Still, I want to stay beside you
No reason, just a feeling
I want to be near you
It’s just love — I just want to love you
If I didn’t love you
It wouldn’t ache like this
Wouldn’t care where you are
Or what you’re doing right now
I know it’s hard for you to see me breaking
But I still don’t want to let you go
I don’t want this to be the end
Because I still love you
Is it selfish
To wish you’d stay, even knowing you’re hurting?
Maybe it’s not love for you
Maybe it’s just love for me
