If I Didn't Love You
Unveiling Heartache: Embracing Truth Behind Love's Pain
Lyrics
I can't believe it's really me telling you goodbye
Expressing disbelief in having to say goodbye.
I've run out of reasons to defend your alibis
Stating a lack of reasons to justify or excuse your actions.
I can't go on pretending everything is still ok
Unable to continue pretending that everything is normal.
Now I know the truth behind all the games you played
Realizing the truth behind the deceptive games played in the relationship.
It wouldn't be so hard for me to turn my heart away
Expressing that ending the relationship would be easier if there were no love involved.
If I didn't love you
The central theme: the difficulty of leaving because of love.
Looking back it's easy now for me to understand
Reflecting on past events and finding clarity in understanding.
Why you got so angry when I asked you where you'd been
Recalling moments of suspicion and tension in the relationship.
You told me my suspicions were only jealousy
Noting the partner's dismissal of suspicions as mere jealousy.
And you used the way I trusted you to make a fool of me
Highlighting the betrayal of trust and manipulation.
You closed my eyes to lies that I could never have believed
Acknowledging the blindness to lies due to deep love.
If I didn't love you
Reiterating the theme: enduring pain because of love.
Cause if I didn't love you
Emphasizing the inevitability of enduring due to love.
I'd walked away a long, long time ago
Expressing a hypothetical scenario of leaving without love.
And if I didn't love you
Stressing that enduring pain is a consequence of love.
I never would have let you hurt me so
Acknowledging the hurt endured as a result of love.
Now the time has come for me to tell you that we're through
Declaring the end of the relationship and the need to move on.
Leave this broken dream behind and go find someone new
Encouraging leaving the shattered dreams and seeking a new beginning.
And I could see that it would be an easy thing to do
Observing the ease of moving on if love were absent.
If I didn't love you
Reiterating that the difficulty lies in the presence of love.
Cause if I didn't love you
Echoing the idea of leaving without the complication of love.
I'd walked away a long, long time ago
Repeating the notion of an early departure without love.
And if I didn't love you
Reiterating the pain endured because of love.
I never would have let you hurt me so
Affirming that allowing hurt is a consequence of love.
If I didn't love you (x3)
Emphasizing the challenging aspect of enduring due to love.
