Even Now
Even Now: Navigating Love's Turmoil
Lyrics
Well I was wrong
Admitting a mistake
But you were mean
Noticing the partner's unkind behavior
Yea, I got mad
Expressing anger in response
Cuz you said those things
Recalling hurtful words spoken by the partner
I called your bluff
Challenging the partner's honesty
So you walked out
Partner leaving after confrontation
So I guess,
Implying a sense of equality in wrongdoing
We're even now
Claiming a balanced score in the relationship
Well I told Jill
Sharing information with others about the situation
but you told Joe
Partner also disclosing details to someone else
And I won't name names
Refusing to reveal specific names
But I heard you told someone where I could go
Hearing about the partner spreading negative information
So I went out and met someone and we had a little fun out on the town
Reacting by seeking enjoyment with someone else
So I guess,
Perceiving a sense of equivalence in actions
We're even now
Claiming a balanced score in the relationship again
We ain't kids
Acknowledging maturity but not acting like it
We keep actin like we are
Engaging in childish behavior despite age
Playin stupid games
Playing harmful emotional games
Tryin to break each other's hearts
Attempting to hurt each other emotionally
Nobody wins
Highlighting the lack of winners in this situation
And nobody's keepin score
Emphasizing the absence of keeping score in love
Truth is I just don't think I can do this anymore
Expressing doubt about continuing the relationship
I wish that we could turn this thing around
Expressing a desire for positive change
Turn around
Repeating the hope for a turnaround
Cuz I still love you
Affirming continued love despite challenges
I still love you
Repeating the declaration of love
Even now
Reiterating love even in the present difficult circumstances
Nobody wins
Reemphasizing the lack of winners in the situation
And nobody's keepin score
Reiterating the absence of keeping score in love
Truth is I just don't think I can do this anymore
Expressing the difficulty of continuing the relationship
I wish that we could turn this thing around
Repeating the desire for a positive change
Turn around
Reiterating the hope for a turnaround
Cuz I still love you
Affirming continued love despite challenges
I still love you
Repeating the declaration of love
Well I was wrong
Admitting another mistake
Well I was mean
Recognizing one's own unkind behavior
Can't we just be
Desiring simplicity and reconciliation
Even now
Expressing a longing for balance in the present
