Lyrics
Didn't wanna feel love anymore
Expressing a reluctance or avoidance of feeling love.
But I don't think it felt like this before
Suggesting that the current experience of love is different from past ones.
I told myself to stay alone
Self-admonition to remain isolated or emotionally distant.
But something 'bout the love that you've shown me
Acknowledging an impact from the affection received, something special about it.
The way you hold me
Highlighting the comforting physical embrace of the person expressing love.
Tell me that you're not leaving tonight
Seeking reassurance and commitment from the partner not to leave.
Tell me that you don't even want to
Asking the partner to confirm their desire to stay.
I see the truth when I look in your eyes
Perceiving honesty or sincerity by looking into the partner's eyes.
We don't speak but we don't have to
Recognizing a depth of connection that doesn't require verbal communication.
Tell me that you love me
Requesting verbal affirmation of love.
But then show me that you mean it
Emphasizing the importance of actions supporting the spoken words.
I wanna suffocate on those words
Expressing a desire to be immersed in the words of love.
Until I learn how to breathe them
Desiring to fully experience and internalize expressions of love.
Just tell me that you love me
Reiterating the need for verbal confirmation of love.
But then show me that you mean it
Reinforcing the importance of genuine actions accompanying verbal expressions.
I wanna suffocate on those words
Repeating the desire to be immersed in words of love for personal growth.
Until I learn how to breathe them
Reiterating the aspiration to fully understand and assimilate expressions of love.
I take what I can and I want even more
Expressing a tendency to take what is available and desiring more.
The days alone just aren't enough anymore
Feeling that time spent alone is insufficient and longing for more.
I don't think I deserve it
Questioning personal worthiness of the love received.
But I'll never just return it, no
Committing to not simply returning love but appreciating it.
The days alone just aren't enough anymore, no
Reiterating the inadequacy of alone time, emphasizing a desire for more connection.
I really hate that I'm leaving tonight
Expressing regret or dislike for leaving tonight.
I'd rather stay than be without you
Preferring to stay with the partner than be without them.
I really wish the timing of this was right
Wishing for better timing in the relationship.
I know it's hard so you don't have to
Acknowledging the difficulty but offering understanding and support.
Tell me that you love me
Seeking verbal affirmation of love, accompanied by meaningful actions.
Just kiss me like you mean it
Emphasizing the importance of sincere and meaningful physical expressions of love.
I wanna suffocate on those words
Expressing a desire to be overwhelmed by the words of love without verbalizing.
Without either of us speaking
Highlighting the power of non-verbal communication in expressing love.
You tell me that you love me
Requesting varied expressions of love in authentic ways.
In all your best ways, I know you mean it
Acknowledging the partner's genuine expressions of love.
I wanna suffocate on those words
Reiterating the desire to fully experience and internalize expressions of love.
Until we both learn how to breathe them
Expressing a shared journey of learning how to fully appreciate and live with expressions of love.
