Lyrics
You say that you will never leaving
You express a commitment to staying, going against the common pattern of people leaving.
Like everyone does
Similar to others, there's an initial promise of permanence.
Right from the start
From the very beginning of the relationship.
But over time you lose that feeling
Gradually, the initial emotions fade away.
From the beginning
Reflecting on the ease of love at the start.
When it was easy love
During the phase when love was effortless.
But after 18 months
After a year and a half, things have changed.
It ain’t the same it was
It's not the same as it used to be.
And I tried holding on
Attempting to maintain the relationship, but it didn't work.
But we got lost
We drifted apart despite efforts to hold on.
When we met was like a dream
Meeting you felt like a perfect scenario.
You were the one and I just couldn’t believe
You seemed like the ideal partner, almost unbelievable.
But then we got to know each other
As we got closer, reality revealed you were too good for me.
And it turned out you were too good for me
Realizing your exceptional nature compared to me.
I tried to save us
Efforts were made to salvage the relationship.
Before you hit the breaks
Attempting to fix things before it's too late.
You made the bed but
You set the stage for the end, and now I'm suffering the consequences.
Now I lie in the grave
Feeling the pain of the situation.
I play it over
Replaying the past, regretting missed opportunities to communicate.
The words I should’ve said
Reflecting on the things that could have made a difference.
If only I had played my part
If only I had fulfilled my role properly, you might still be with me.
You’d still be in my arms
An expression of longing for the past when we were together.
Lately I’ve been tryna pass time
Recently, attempting to fill the void left by your absence.
But it feels like it’s a lifetime
The passing time feels endless without you.
Since I heard your voice
It's been a long time since I last heard your voice.
Friends call saying someone’s out there
Friends inform me of potential new connections, but I'm still hung up on you.
But what they don’t realize
They are unaware that I haven't moved on.
Is i’m not over you
I'm still emotionally attached to our past.
When we met was like a dream
Similar to a dream, meeting you felt surreal.
You were the one and I just couldn’t believe
You seemed perfect, and I couldn't believe my luck.
Then we got to know each other
As we grew closer, it became evident you were too good for me.
And it turned out you were too good for me
Realizing your exceptional qualities compared to mine.
I tried to save us
Attempts were made to salvage the relationship.
Before you hit the breaks
Trying to fix things before it's too late.
You made the bed but
You initiated the end, and now I'm dealing with the aftermath.
Now I lie in the grave
Experiencing the pain and consequence of your decision.
I play it over
Replaying past scenarios and regretting unspoken words.
The words I should’ve said
Reflecting on the words that might have made a difference.
If only I had played my part
Feeling that proper participation could have maintained the relationship.
You’d still be in my arms
If I had fulfilled my role, you might still be by my side.
Tried to save
Efforts were made to salvage the relationship.
Only I
If only I had done what was necessary.
Shoulda said
Regret for not expressing certain things.
Only I have played my part
If only I had played my part properly.
