[Verse 1]
You call, then you go
Then you come back slow
My heart on a chain
Still draggin' that load
I seen all the signs
Still stayed in the line
You hurt me, I healed
Then you cross that line
I act like I'm fine
But you know the truth
I'm tryna hold on
While I'm losin' you
Same fight, same tears
Same bed, same fear
If love got a seat
Why it never stay here?
[Pre-Chorus]
Why we gotta do this?
Why we always bend?
Why every good moment
Turn around and end?
I know what your eyes say
I know what they mean
You still got my name
Folded in your dreams
[Chorus]
Why we gotta keep it up?
Back and forward, back and forward
Why we gotta shake it up?
Baby, keep it stable for us
I know you still love me
I know you still love me
So I be here waitin', ma
I still love you, baby
[Verse 2]
I left, then I stayed
Then I texted first
Pride in my throat
But my heart got worse
You say that you miss me
Then fade out the room
I read between lines
Like I read a tune
I ain't perfect, nah
I got my own scars
But I don't switch lanes
Every time it gets hard
Tell me what we are
Don't leave me in gray
If we can't be forever
Then don't make me stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Why we gotta do this?
Why we always bend?
Why every good moment
Turn around and end?
I know what your eyes say
I know what they mean
You still got my name
Folded in your dreams
[Chorus]
Why we gotta keep it up?
Back and forward, back and forward
Why we gotta shake it up?
Baby, keep it stable for us
I know you still love me
I know you still love me
So I be here waitin', ma
I still love you, baby
[Bridge]
If you need time, take it
If you need space, say it
But don't leave my soul
At the edge of a breakdown
I'm not tryna win this
I'm tryna keep this
If love is the road
Then let's stop the spin now
[Chorus]
Why we gotta keep it up?
Back and forward, back and forward
Why we gotta shake it up?
Baby, keep it stable for us
I know you still love me
I know you still love me
So I be here waitin', ma
I still love you, baby
