I Might Even Quit Lovin' You
Breaking Free: Rediscovering Love After Heartbreak
Lyrics
Ever since you told me we were through
Reflecting on the end of the relationship since being informed of the breakup.
I've been down, I've been down
Expressing emotional distress and feeling down after the breakup.
The love you said I'd find to take your place
Not finding the promised love to replace the ended relationship.
Never came around, never came around
Highlighting the absence of the expected love after the breakup.
But one of these days I'll stand on my own
Anticipating a future where the singer will stand independently.
And I'll turn this bleeding heart into stone
Expressing the desire to overcome heartbreak and become emotionally resilient.
Gonna reach way down inside
Determining to search deep within for a renewed will to live.
And find a brand new will to live
Finding the inner strength to face life without the former partner.
Got plans to forget about
Making plans to move on and forget the impact of the past relationship.
The way you made me feel
Deciding to let go of the emotions tied to the way the partner made the singer feel.
Gonna walk outside one night
Contemplating a moment of liberation by stepping outside at night.
And turn your memory loose
Choosing to release the memories associated with the ex-partner.
And when I do, I might even quit loving you
Expressing the possibility of quitting the act of loving the ex-partner.
And when I do, I might even quit loving you
Reiterating the potential decision to stop loving the former partner.
There was a time I thought I knew for certain
Recalling a time when the singer believed the partner would return home.
You'd come home, you'd come home
Expressing the hope that the partner would come back, which did not happen.
But judging from the nights I've spent without you
Acknowledging the realization that the expectation was incorrect.
I was wrong, I was wrong
Admitting the mistake of assuming the partner would return.
The time has finally come to face the truth
Accepting that it is time to face the truth about the relationship.
There's only one thing left I can do
Expressing a sense of resignation and limited options in the situation.
Gonna reach way down inside
Reiterating the determination to find strength within to continue living.
And find a brand new will to live
Focusing on discovering a new purpose and will to live.
Got plans to forget about
Having concrete plans to move forward and leave behind the emotional impact.
The way you made me feel
Deciding to let go of the emotions associated with the ex-partner's actions.
Gonna walk outside one night
Contemplating a symbolic act of liberation by walking outside at night.
And turn your memory loose
Choosing to release the memories and emotions tied to the ex-partner.
And when I do, I might even quit loving you
Expressing the potential decision to quit the act of loving the ex-partner.
And when I do, I might even quit loving you
Reiterating the possibility of stopping the love for the former partner.
