Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] We were fine in the daytime When nothing asked too much You were easy to be around You were easy to love But the nights would change you When you tried to numb your past I kept hoping I’d be enough And you’d be happy at last [Pre-Chorus] I told myself it was nothing Just another phase But some things don’t get better They just wear you away [Chorus] It shouldn’t matter but it does That I was never enough I stayed up waiting for your love While you were giving up I tried to hold us together While you were coming undone I thought you were the one [Verse 2] I knew the sound of your breathing When you couldn’t sleep I knew the look in your eyes When you’d disappear from me I kept saying “tomorrow” Like it still had a chance But tomorrow kept showing me What we didn’t have [Pre-Chorus] I learned the hard kind of loving That doesn’t get returned Some lessons come easy This one had to burn [Chorus] It shouldn’t matter but it does That I wanted you to stay That I needed you sober In every quiet way I tried to love you through it Tried to save what I could But loving you meant losing me [Bridge (strip the drums)] The nights were long and restless I barely slept at all I kept replaying every word Like it might stop the fall I don’t hate you, I don’t blame you I just finally see I can’t be what you need If you can’t be here with me [Final Chorus] It shouldn’t matter but it does That I still wish you well That I hope you found your way back From wherever you fell I loved you and got nothing back And that’s the truth I know I didn’t stop loving you I just had to let you go [Outro (space, half-time feel)] Because of you I found myself
