Lyrics

Remember how you said

Recalling a previous statement or promise

I was the only one you love

Being told you were the sole object of affection

That I was meant for you

Believing that you were destined for the person

And how I was more than enough

Being considered more than sufficient

Guess I don't

Expressing doubt or disbelief

I guess you never cared at all

Realizing the lack of genuine concern

I see that you are happy

Observing the other person's happiness without you

Now that I am out your life

Noticing an apparent positive change after separation

I see you told your friends

Awareness of discussing the breakup with friends

'Bout how I broke your heart and mind

Recognition of being blamed for emotional pain

Oh no, no

Expressing denial or disagreement

Did you forget how I loved you?

Prompting a recollection of past love

I nearly lost myself from loving you

Almost losing oneself due to intense love

I gave you all of me, how about you?

Offering complete devotion, questioning reciprocity

How dare you say that I was gone

Rejecting the notion of one's absence

When clearly, you're the one who gave us up

Attributing the relationship's end to the other person

Guess we never really mattered

Casting doubt on the relationship's significance

Maybe breaking up is better, baby

Suggesting that separation might be beneficial

Remember all the plans

Reflecting on shared dreams and plans

We always used to dream about

Recalling commitments and pledges

And all the promises we used to swear to keep around

Hoping the other person remembers their importance

Hope you do

Emphasizing personal significance of shared memories

It really meant so much to me

Expressing emotional attachment to memories

I think of all the days we used to sing and laugh aloud

Nostalgia for joyful moments of laughter and song

That smile on your face that made my world keep spinning 'round

Highlighting the impact of the other's happiness

Now it's gone

Acknowledging the irreversible change in the relationship

We can't return the way things were

Regret for the loss of the past

I nearly lost myself from loving you

Almost losing oneself due to intense love (repeated)

I gave you all of me, how about you?

Offering complete devotion, questioning reciprocity (repeated)

How dare you say that I was gone

Rejecting the notion of one's absence (repeated)

When clearly, you're the one who gave us up

Attributing the relationship's end to the other person (repeated)

Guess we never really mattered

Casting doubt on the relationship's significance (repeated)

Maybe breaking up is better

Suggesting that separation might be beneficial (repeated)

But I don't think that it's easy

Expressing the difficulty of moving on

To move on cause feelings never fade

Acknowledging the enduring nature of emotions

But I'll try to see you happy

Committing to the other person's happiness

Even though I'm not the one who'll make

Accepting one's inability to be the source of happiness

I thank you for the days that we've been through

Expressing gratitude for shared experiences

I know your love for me was very true

Acknowledging the sincerity of the other's love

We've tried so hard to carry on

Recognizing efforts to sustain the relationship

But now we end the story of our love

Concluding the narrative of the relationship

May you find the peace you wanted

Wishing peace for the other person

Get back up, and keep on moving

Encouraging resilience and forward movement

Hoping you would find forever

Expressing hope for lasting happiness

With someone who will treat you better

Wishing for a better treatment from a future partner

Baby

Endearment or farewell
