I Love You
“I love you”
But did you?
Or did you love those sweet words I whispered in your ear,
The way I made you feel special.
You can say you love me;
But before you close your eyes at night,
What was your last thought?
Was it the way I laughed when you told a joke?
Or my smile?
Is it my body?
Is it how I made you feel wanted in this lonely world?
I don't know if I believe you loved me,
We just broke up and you're already happy with her.
It makes me doubt the words you said to me,
If they were real…
or a way to play with my heart.
I told you when you moved on I'd be happy for you,
I just didn't think you'd move on so soon.
I thought I'd have time to get over you before I saw you with her.
Two days after we broke up and you already replaced my picture.
I cried and cried and wondered what she had that I didn't.
Maybe it was the distance,
She was close and I was far,
But I thought we could've worked it out.
I know you say I hurt you,
But you hurt me in a way I just can't describe.
You told me that you loved me
But it's so hard to believe that you love me when you run to her.
