[Intro]
It wasn’t right
It wasn’t real
But it still felt like love
Even if it never was
[Verse 1]
You didn’t say much
But I held on to what you didn’t say
You weren’t mine
But I made space for you anyway
Every word you whispered
I wrote in stone
Even when you disappeared
I still called it “home”
[Pre-Chorus]
I knew better — I swear I did
But I wanted it so bad, I let you in
And maybe you never meant to stay
But I loved you like you did
[Chorus]
It still felt like love — even if it hurt
Even when I cried alone and questioned my worth
It still felt like love — even if you left me cold
Even when I knew I was the only one who broke
I don’t regret it, but I can't pretend
That I’d survive another “almost” again
It wasn’t love, but it still felt like it
And that’s why it’s so hard to forget
[Verse 2]
I held your silence like it meant something
Waited for a message that never came
You told me nothing — but I filled in the blanks
With soft versions of you I made
You had your reasons
I had my heart
And now I carry this weight
While you restart
[Bridge]
I told you I liked you
And maybe I shouldn’t have
But I don’t regret it
I just regret hoping you’d say it back
[Final Chorus]
It still felt like love — even if it was fake
Even if I gave more than you ever meant to take
It still felt like love — and that’s the curse
When something so hollow can still hurt
I’ll be okay — I’ll heal, I’ll grow
But a part of me still wishes you’d known
It wasn’t love, but it still felt like it
And maybe that’s what broke me most
[Outro]
You weren’t mine
You never really were
But for a while...
You felt like home
