Wished You Loved You

You told me you were broken, and I tried to help you heal,

But loving you felt like fighting what you refused to feel.

I walked through the shadows you never tried to leave—

You want to love me… but baby, you don’t know peace.

I poured myself in a place you refuse to go,

Held a mirror to your pain you don’t want to know.

I loved you hard, but the truth is—

Baby, I wish you loved you.

I wish you loved you the way I tried to,

Maybe then your heart could’ve let mine through.

You pushed me away when all I gave was truth—

Baby… I wish you loved you.

You wear every scar like it defines your name,

And you keep running from the one who never brought you pain.

I tried to be your shelter, tried to stay right by your side—

But baby you can’t love someone, who won’t even try.

I poured myself in a place you refuse to go,

Held a mirror to your pain you don’t want to know.

I loved you hard, but the truth is—

Baby, I wish you loved you.

I wish you loved you the way I tried to,

Maybe then your heart could’ve let mine through.

You pushed me away when all I gave was truth—

Baby… I wish you loved you.

Baby… I wish you loved you.

Baby… I wish you loved you.

You weren’t scared of losing me—

You were scared of choosing you.

And we can’t win the battle

You refused to fight through.

Baby, I wish you loved you.

Baby, I wish you loved you.

Maybe one day you’ll see what I always knew…

Baby, I wish you loved you.
