“It wasn’t that I didn’t love you”

You say I walked away
Like I didn’t feel it too
Like one bad night erased
Everything we built was true
But loving you was never
Something I regretted
I just got scared of losing
What I hadn’t lost yet

Pre-Chorus
I saw forever in your eyes
And that terrified me
What if I couldn’t be
Everything you need?

Chorus
It wasn’t that I didn’t love you
It wasn’t someone new
It was the weight of something real
And not knowing what to do
You wanted us unshaken
I felt the cracks beneath
It wasn’t that I stopped loving you
I just didn’t trust me

Verse 2
You say don’t rewrite history
Like we were meant to end
But sometimes fear gets louder
Than the promise we were in
I didn’t mean to let go
I just didn’t know how to stay
When forever started sounding
Like a test I couldn’t ace

Bridge
You say you don’t want someone else
You want me to want this too
What if I do, but I’m afraid
Of failing loving you?

What if walking wasn’t leaving
But trying not to drown?
What if I thought I’d break your heart
By sticking around?

Final Chorus
It wasn’t that I didn’t love you
God, I loved you hard
I just didn’t know how to hold
Something that felt that large
If you’re still standing there
And somehow you still do
Maybe I was never scared of us…
Maybe I was scared of losing you.
