Lyrics

Sometimes it's all too much for me to hide

Sometimes, the emotional burden becomes overwhelming for me to conceal.

When everything gets twisted up inside

During moments when my feelings are in turmoil, tangled within.

And I wish that you were there by my side

I yearn for your presence to provide support and comfort.

But still I try

Despite the difficulties, I make an effort to cope and persevere.


If you find someone else, I'll be glad for you

If you find happiness with someone else, I will genuinely be happy for you.

I have to stop myself

I consciously prevent myself from dwelling on the potential actions of your new partner.

From thinking about the things you'll do

A struggle to avoid pondering about the experiences you share with someone else.

But I can't help it

Despite my efforts, I can't control my thoughts, and they might reflect reality.

The things I think just might be true

The thoughts I have might actually be accurate, despite my attempts to dismiss them.

I try

I persist in my efforts to navigate through these emotional challenges.


Does he do the things to you that I want to?

Questioning whether your new partner fulfills the desires and actions I aspire to.

Does he love you like I used to do?

Comparing the current love and care you receive with what I used to provide.

Do you ever miss me like I miss you?

Wondering if you experience longing for our past connection, as I do.

Don't you ever want me too?

Expressing a desire for reciprocity, questioning if you also yearn for me.


Does he do the things to you that I want to?

Repeating the inquiry about the actions and love your new partner provides.

Does he love you like I used to do?

Reiterating the comparison of the current love with the love I once offered.

Do you ever miss me like I miss you?

Asking if there are moments when you yearn for our past connection.

Don't you ever want me too?

Expressing the hope that you might desire a reconnection with me.


Does he do the things to you that I want to?

Once again questioning if your current partner fulfills my unfulfilled desires.

Does he love you like I used to do?

Repeating the comparison of the current love with the love I once provided.

Do you ever miss me like I miss you?

Continuing to inquire if you feel the absence and longing that I experience.

Don't you ever want me too?

Expressing the hope that you might also desire a renewed connection with me.
