Lyrics
I remember the day that we met
I recall the day when we first met
You were like a light I didn't know that I needed
You were like a guiding light that I didn't realize I needed
You had a smile that could warm up the New York cold
Your smile had the power to warm up the coldness of New York
It wasn't long 'til we both caught feelings
We both developed feelings for each other relatively quickly
I didn't know that we both had demons
I was unaware that both of us had inner struggles or challenges
But it's funny how time reveals it all
Time has a way of revealing hidden aspects of a relationship
And you stayed out that night after we had a fight
You stayed out that night after our argument
And my friends said they saw you with him
According to my friends, they saw you with someone else at the bar where we first met
At that bar where we met, while I'm here in our bed
You were at the bar while I remained in our bed; I question if you regret your actions
Do you even regret what you did?
Do you feel remorse for what you did?
'Cause it was never meant to end like this
The end of our relationship was not intended to be like this
Standing in the rain in your black dress
We are standing in the rain, you in your black dress
So go ahead and tell me what I did to deserve this
Express to me what I did to deserve this situation
And I'm not saying we were perfect
Acknowledging that our relationship was not perfect
I hope that one night with him was worth it
I hope that the night with the other person was worthwhile
But telling me that it was a mistake don't make it hurtless
Claiming it was a mistake does not lessen the pain
I'm standing there as you list off your reasons
I stand there as you provide your justifications
Made me feel like a fool for believing
You make me feel foolish for trusting and believing in you
You reach for my hand as I turn to leave
You reach for my hand as I attempt to leave
But you keep on holding on
You insist on holding on despite the situation
And your eyes started falling weighed down with despair
Your eyes show signs of sadness and heaviness
And you turned around and said, "This isn't fair"
You express that the situation is unfair
It was only one night, there were no feelings shared
Clarifying that it was a one-time occurrence with no emotional attachment
So I looked in your eyes and I said
I look into your eyes and respond
That it was never meant to end like this
Similar to earlier, the end was not anticipated
Standing in the rain in your black dress
We are standing in the rain, you in your black dress
So go ahead and tell me what I did to deserve this
Requesting an explanation for the current situation
And I'm not saying we were perfect
Acknowledging imperfection in our relationship
I hope that one night with him was worth it
I hope that the night with the other person was worth it
But telling me that it was a mistake don't make it hurtless
Stating that labeling it a mistake doesn't lessen the pain
I know the day will come when this won't hurt anymore
I anticipate a day when the pain will subside
And all the pain is just an afterthought
Envisioning a time when the pain becomes a distant memory
If I'm strong enough to let you in I can let you out again
If I find the strength to let you in, I can also let you go
And I hope someday you'll find someone to love you like I did
Expressing hope that you will find someone who loves you as I did
'Cause it was never meant to end like this
The end of our relationship was not intended to be like this
Standing in the rain in your black dress
We are standing in the rain, you in your black dress
So go ahead and tell me what I did to deserve this
Requesting an explanation for the current situation
And I'm not saying we were perfect
Acknowledging imperfection in our relationship
I hope one night with him was worth it
I hope that the night with the other person was worth it
But telling me that it was a mistake don't make it hurtless
Stating that labeling it a mistake doesn't lessen the pain
It don't make it hurtless
Emphasizing that calling it a mistake doesn't make the pain disappear
