Lyrics

You got the touch, you got the magic

You possess a special quality, a captivating charm

Making me blush, you keep me coming back for more

Your actions make me feel embarrassed, but I'm drawn to you and want more

Gave you too much, I'll let you have it

I gave you a lot, allowed you to have it

It's gonna suck, this is a thing I can't ignore

Consequences will be difficult; it's something I cannot overlook


You almost take me

You almost connect with me emotionally

But you never take me all the way

You never fully commit to the emotional connection

All the way (no, no, no)

This lack of commitment is emphasized (repeated)

And now I'd hate to break your heart

I don't want to hurt you, but I need to be honest

But I don't wanna waste

I don't want to waste any more time on you

Anymore time on you

Expressing a desire to move on from the relationship


I could like you 'til the day that I die

I can like you, but I'm searching for a deeper connection

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Emphasizing the search for true love

I could like you 'til the day that I die

Repeating the theme of liking but not finding true love yet

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Continuing the emphasis on searching for the love of one's life


Baby don't beg or buy me flowers

Asking not to beg or attempt to win affection with material gestures

You cannot stay 'cause it would only make it worse

Leaving is better to avoid further pain

Some other chick that's on your lips for hours

Aware of someone else on your lips, indicating potential infidelity

Sure it could wait, but I don't wanna see you hurt

Delaying the inevitable breakup but expressing concern for the other person


You almost took me

Similar to line 6, expressing almost reaching emotional closeness

But you never took me all the way

Reiterating the lack of complete emotional connection

All the way (no, no, no)

Repeating the lack of commitment for emphasis

And now I'd hate to break your heart

Concern about hurting the other person

But I don't wanna waste

Repeating the desire not to waste more time in the relationship

Anyore time on you

Repeating the intention to move on from the relationship


I could like you 'til the day that I die

Reiterating the liking but emphasizing the quest for true love

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Emphasizing the search for the love of one's life

I could like you 'til the day that I die

Continuing the theme of liking but not finding the right love yet

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Continuing the emphasis on searching for the love of one's life


I really like you, but you're not that right for me

Expressing genuine liking but acknowledging it's not the right fit

I rather wait all my life to find the one

Preferably waiting a lifetime to find the perfect match

I really like you, but it's just not meant to be

Repeating the theme of liking but acknowledging it's not meant to be

Oh, I'm so sorry, I am, oh yeah

Apologizing for the realization that the relationship won't work


I could like you 'til the day that I die

Reiterating the liking but underscoring the search for true love

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Emphasizing the ongoing quest for the love of one's life

I could like you 'til the day that I die

Continuing the theme of liking but not finding the right love yet

But I'm looking for the love of my life

Emphasizing the ongoing search for the love of one's life
