Lyrics
You were saying don’t let go
You were advising not to release or give up.
Always holding me so close
You consistently held me closely.
Saying you’re mine
Stating that you belong to me.
All the time
Consistently and always.
We were always trying to live
We were continuously striving to exist.
Always trying to get a feel
Continuously attempting to grasp or comprehend.
Of our time
Regarding our moments or period.
Without a fight
Without resorting to a confrontation.
But all you did was trying to hide
However, your actions were an attempt to shield me from other men.
Me from all the other guys
Attempting to keep me away from other males.
Saying they won’t ever love you right
Asserting that they would never love me correctly.
All you wanted me to say
Your desire was for me to affirm that you're the only one for me forever.
You’re the only one for me a jamais
That you are the only one for me eternally (in French).
But it doesn’t feel right anymore
But now, it doesn't feel authentic or genuine.
Baby oh, why don’t
Why don't you perceive or recognize?
You notice when I’m feeling
When I'm feeling desolate or isolated.
Lonely by the way
The manner in which you're treating me.
You treat me this way
Stating it's all due to the fact that I solely desire you.
Saying it’s all because
Expressing the motive that I want you exclusively.
I just want you for my own
Only for myself and completely.
And all for me
Everything solely for me.
All for me, all for me
All directed towards me, for me.
I’m trying to get away from you
I am attempting to distance myself from you.
I know now it was untrue
Now I realize it was false or insincere.
I don’t want you anymore
I no longer desire you.
Didn’t notice I was gone
You didn't notice my absence.
You didn’t even get torn
You didn't even experience distress or turmoil.
I thought you’d fight it
I expected you to resist or oppose it.
You didn’t mind it
You didn't object or oppose.
How did we get to this after so long?
How did our relationship deteriorate after such a lengthy period?
Feeling so alone not knowing where to go
Feeling extremely solitary, uncertain where to proceed.
I couldn’t stand feeling so out of hand
I couldn't endure feeling so out of control.
You can’t lie to me forever more
You cannot deceive me indefinitely.
‘Cause I don’t know how to love
Because I lack understanding of how to love.
How to touch another one when all I want is you to be enough
How to engage physically with another when all I crave is you being sufficient.
I don’t how to be free
I am unfamiliar with being liberated or unrestricted.
I don’t know how I believed, the way that you looked at me
I don't comprehend how I believed in the way you looked at me.
Saying it was all for me, no
Asserting that everything was exclusively for my benefit, but it wasn't.
All for me
All directed towards me.
It was all for me, ooh
It was all aimed at me.
All for me
Entirely for me.
All for me
All dedicated or intended for me.
All for me
All directed towards me.
