Lyrics
Don't leave me
Expressing a plea for someone not to leave.
I never thought that things would be easy
Acknowledging that the speaker never expected an easy relationship.
But you didn't need to make them this hard
Criticizing the unnecessary difficulty introduced by the partner.
And you didn't have to hurt me so deeply, completely
Expressing deep emotional pain caused by the partner's actions.
Don't leave me
Reiterating the plea for the partner not to leave.
If you gave me three wishes from a genie
If given the opportunity, the speaker would use wishes to be with the partner.
I would use them all to be where you are
Desire to be in the same place as the partner is emphasized.
Girl you didn't have to hurt me so deeply, completely
Reiterating the emotional pain inflicted by the partner.
Carry on in the way you always were
Encouraging the partner to continue being themselves.
I should have known that you were never sure
Regret about not realizing the partner's uncertainty.
And when I was looking at someone else
Admitting to looking at someone else, suggesting possible betrayal.
Oh I can't give you diamond rings and pearls
Inability to provide material possessions but willing to offer oneself.
What can I get a girl that's always had the world
Recognizing the partner's privileged background.
When I have nothing to offer but myself
Expressing the limitation of personal offerings.
But I'm not enough and I never was
Feeling inadequate and insufficient.
And it makes me cry
Expressing emotional pain that brings the speaker to tears.
To my surprise to like **** guys
Surprised by finding attraction to individuals of a certain gender.
Can you tell me why
Seeking an explanation for the unexpected attraction.
Don't leave me
Repetition of the plea not to leave, emphasizing urgency.
I never thought that things would be easy
Repeating the acknowledgment of expecting challenges but not excessive hardship.
But you didn't need to make them this hard
Reiterating criticism of the partner's role in intensifying difficulties.
And you didn't have to hurt me so deeply, completely
Emphasizing the profound emotional impact of the partner's actions.
Don't leave me
Continuing the plea for the partner not to leave.
If you gave me three wishes from a genie
Reiterating the desire to be with the partner through wishes.
I would use them all to be where you are
Expressing the willingness to use all available means to be close to the partner.
Girl you didn't have to hurt me so deeply, completely
Stressing the emotional hurt caused by the partner's actions.
Don't leave
Repeating the plea not to leave.
But even if you did I'd still come to play
Indicating a persistent commitment to the relationship, even if the partner decides to leave.
Yeah
Affirming that the speaker enjoyed the time spent playing the partner's game.
I had the best damn time just playing your game
Expressing positive memories of the relationship despite challenges.
And I almost thought I knew ya, knew ya
Reflecting on the initial belief in understanding the partner.
Like that
Highlighting a shift in perception about the partner.
You messed me up I wouldn't do ya, do ya
Refusing to mistreat the partner despite being hurt.
Like that
Reiterating a refusal to treat the partner negatively.
I'm down too bad to still be on the, on the
Feeling lost or off course in the relationship.
Right track
Acknowledging a sense of being on the wrong path.
Im down too bad to still be
Reiterating a feeling of being off course or lost.
Don't leave me
Repeating the plea for the partner not to leave.
I never thought that things would be easy
Reiterating the acknowledgment of expecting challenges in the relationship.
But you didn't need to make them this hard
Emphasizing the partner's role in unnecessarily complicating the relationship.
