Verse
Let me tell you ‘bout red flags and spilled tea
You said you had feelings — said “let ‘em be”
Whispered promises you couldn’t live
Talking ‘bout forever you can’t give
Pre Chorus
How could you, baby
Break me down like this?
Chorus
Don’t whisper love if you can’t give
Don’t hold me close if it ain’t enough
Don’t say my name like I’m the one
When you go home when your done
If you love her, let me live
Don’t whisper love you can’t give
Verse
You lock my heart up with a key
Pulling that loyalty out of me
Just enough to make it right
Never there for my lonely nights
Pre Chorus
You need me close, but not to stay
I’m not strong enough to walk away
Chorus
Don’t whisper love if you can’t give
Don’t hold me close if it ain’t enough
Don’t say my name like I’m the one
When you go home when your done
If you love her, let me live
Don’t whisper love you can’t give
How do I learn to choose myself
When half your heart’s on someone else?
Chorus
Don’t whisper love if you can’t give
Don’t pull me in just to forgive
Don’t build a fire you can’t maintain
Don’t keep coming back to the bed you laid
If you love her, let me live
Don’t whisper love you can’t give
Can’t give
Can’t give
Burning a fire you can’t give
Let me live
