Lyrics
What happened, you used to do anything for love, oh yeah
Expressing disappointment about a change in behavior, recalling a time when the partner would do anything for love.
We drifted, after that we are not the same, no

I made everything about us

You say "stay" then you wanna be free
Describing a conflicting message from the partner—asking to stay but also wanting freedom.
We go back and forth, but you're still in love with me

So if you're gonna stay, I need you to be here
Requesting commitment and presence in the relationship.
To show me that you care

Give me all the reasons why I need you, need you here

There you go, you keep running and running

Thinking I'm gon' wait around, I'm tired of you letting me down

You know you can't live without us
Asserting the partner's dependence on the relationship despite their actions.
You know you belong to me
Claiming ownership of the partner and emphasizing the connection.
Let's make everything about us
Proposing a return to a focus on the relationship and shared beliefs.
We're gonna stay because we believe
