Somewhere between knowing and hoping... I called it love.đź–¤
[Lyrics]
I looked tired when you kissed me
Said “I’m fine,” but then you missed me
You smiled, well out of habit
But I knew you didn't mean it
You held me like it hurt you
Still, I leaned in all the same
Said "Sorry" like I hurt you
Just as if I was to blame
I stayed anyway
Even when it didn’t feel right
I stayed anyway
Just to hear you lie at night
I stayed just to say
Yeah, I stayed just to say
I stayed anyway
(Stayed, stayed)
(Stayed)
You started second-guessing
Every smile that I would give
I softened every sentence
Just to make it easier to live
You held me like I’d changed you
Still, I leaned in all the same
Said “sorry” just to soothe you
Like I’d earned the quiet blame
I stayed anyway
Even when it didn’t feel right
I stayed anyway
Just to hear you lie at night
I stayed just to say
Yeah, I stayed just to say
I stayed anyway
(stayed, stayed, stayed)
(Stayed, stayed)
I stopped asking for the answer
When the question hurt to say
If this is what love looks like
I don’t know me anyway
(Stayed, stayed)
(Stayed)
I stayed anyway
Even when it didn’t feel right
I stayed anyway
Just to hear you lie at night
I stayed just to say
Yeah, I stayed just to say
I stayed anyway
(Stayed, stayed, stayed...)more
