heart that i fixed
Love's Evolution: A Heart Transformed
Lyrics
We would argue all the time
We frequently had arguments.
Even when we weren't angry
Even during non-angry times, disagreements persisted.
And though I always tried
Despite my efforts, I couldn't maintain your happiness.
I couldn't keep you happy
I acknowledge my inability to keep you content.
And I've become resigned
I've accepted the reality that you will forget me.
To the fact that you'll forget me
Acceptance of the inevitability of being forgotten by you.
But I made you ready for him
I prepared you for someone else (possibly a new partner).
And I'm at peace, knowing we're not meant to be
I am at peace, recognizing that we are not meant to be together.
But I hope he knows the debt he owes to me
Expressing a hope that the new person realizes the debt owed for preparation.
There's someone else living in the house that I built
Someone else now resides in the home I built.
There's someone else taking up the space that I filled
Another person occupies the space I once filled.
There's someone else kissing your lips like I did
Someone else shares intimate moments with you, like I used to.
Someone else is loving the heart that I fixed
Another person is now the recipient of the love I mended in your heart.
Do you apologize
Asking if you apologize even when not at fault.
Even when it's not your fault
Continuation of questioning behavior in relationships.
And do you look him in his eyes
Asking if you make eye contact when facing emotional barriers.
When he won't tear down his walls
Reference to the new person's emotional walls.
I see you found the smile
Observing newfound happiness in your current relationship.
You never had when you were with me
Noting a positive change in your demeanor compared to our time together.
But I made you ready for him
I prepared you for the new person emotionally.
And I'm at peace, knowing we're not meant to be
Content with not being together, accepting the separation.
But I hope you know the debt you owe to me
Expressing a hope that you recognize the debt owed for emotional preparation.
There's someone else living in the house that I built
Reiteration that someone else now occupies the home I built.
There's someone else taking up the space that I filled
Reiteration that another person fills the space I once occupied.
There's someone else kissing your lips like I did
Reiteration of someone else sharing intimate moments like I did.
Someone else is loving the heart that I fixed
Reiteration that another person now receives the love I fixed in your heart.
And I've become a liar
Admission of becoming a liar, conflicting with expressed good intentions.
Because I said I want the best for you but, baby, I
Feeling the best when close, despite expressing desire for your happiness.
Felt the best when I was next to you
Acknowledging the conflict between expressed intentions and feelings.
This ain't right
Expressing discomfort or recognition that the current situation is wrong.
Bringing you through your hard times
Refusing to bring you through difficult times in the current relationship.
No, it don't feel right
Emphasizing the discomfort in navigating through challenging situations.
Bringing you through the darkest nights to make you ready for
It doesn't feel right to guide you through dark times to prepare you for someone else.
There's someone else living in the house that I built
Reiteration that someone else now occupies the home I built.
There's someone else taking up the space that I filled
Reiteration that another person fills the space I once occupied.
There's someone else kissing your lips like I did
Reiteration of someone else sharing intimate moments like I did.
Someone else is loving the heart that I fixed
Reiteration that another person now receives the love I fixed in your heart.
