Quit Drinking
Unveiling Heartache: Katie Wighton's Reflection on Love Beyond Sobriety
Lyrics
You didn't mean to break me
You unintentionally caused emotional harm to me
Didn't mean to shake me up
Your actions unsettled me, though it wasn't your intention
But you did
Despite your lack of intention, you still had an impact on me
And you didn't mean to freak out
You didn't mean to have an emotional outburst, but you did
But you panicked and you tapped out
In a moment of panic, you withdrew or gave up on us
Out on me
You withdrew from our relationship
I watched you walk away from me that night
I observed you leaving that night
But I had to let you go so you could get your head right
I had to let you go for your well-being
So I went about my business
I continued with my life and it turned out better than anticipated
It was better than expected
Life without you was more positive than expected
Without you
I thrived without your presence
And I got all I ever needed
I achieved everything I needed without suffering
And didn't have to bleed it out
I didn't have to endure pain or hardship
Out of you
I didn't have to extract anything from you
We both did just what we had to do
We both did what was necessary
And I'd only throw it down like this for you
I would only go through this for you
But just cuz you quit drinkin
Just because you stopped drinking doesn't mean I stopped thinking about
Don't mean I'm not still thinking of
I'm still contemplating the time you claimed the spark was gone
The time you said the spark was gone
Recalling the instance when you doubted our connection
And you don't think I'm what you want
You believe I'm not what you desire
And you don't think I'm what you
You obtained stability, but I don't want to say I warned you
Got yourself a foothold
You established a secure position
Don't wanna say that I told
I don't want to say I told you, but I did
I told you so,
I warned you
but I told you so, listen when I tell you
Listen to my advice, I told you so
That I'm still gonna need you
Despite everything, I still need you
To give your all
To give your full effort
I want you through the labour and the love
I want you through both difficult times and love
Cuz I didn't let you walk away just to give you up
I didn't let you leave just to abandon you
But just cuz you quit drinkin
Even though you quit drinking, I still think about
Don't mean I'm not still thinking of
The moment you claimed the spark was gone
The time you said the spark was gone
Reflecting on the time you doubted our connection
And you don't think I'm what you want
You believe I'm not what you desire
But just cuz you quit drinkin
Just because you stopped drinking doesn't mean I stopped thinking about
Don't mean I'm not still thinking of
The moment you claimed the spark was gone
The time you said the spark was gone
Recalling the instance when you doubted our connection
And you don't think I'm what you want
You believe I'm not what you desire
