[Intro]
(If he loves you...)
(...I hope he really does.)
(Because you deserve that.)
[Verse 1]
Does he know the silence
that follows when you smile?
(I always heard it...)
The one that tells the truth
you've been hiding all this while.
Does he know your hands still shake
when the whole world gets too loud?
Or does he only know the girl
who disappears into the crowd?
I hope...
he learns your language.
The one without a sound.
(Please... don't stop speaking.)
[Pre-Chorus]
Because loving you
was never easy...
It was simply...
Everything.
[Chorus]
If he loves you...
I hope he loves
every broken piece.
I hope he never asks
your darkness to leave.
(It's part of you.)
I hope he holds you
when you push away.
I hope he stays
when you whisper,
"I'm okay."
(I know you're not.)
I hope he learns
the silence in your eyes...
Because that's where
your real heart lives.
And I hope...
He loves you
the way I always did.
[Verse 2]
Does he know
you overthink the smallest things?
That one careless sentence
stays with you for weeks.
(I remember.)
Will he notice
when your eyes grow quiet?
Or wait until
you're already breaking?
(Please don't disappear.)
Because I'd always find you...
Before you disappeared.
[Pre-Chorus]
You were never difficult...
You were just carrying
more than you should've
ever carried alone.
(I wish you'd believed me.)
[Chorus]
If he loves you...
I hope he memorises
every storm.
Don't fear your thunder...
That's where
your heart was born.
(That's where I found you.)
I hope he holds
your secrets gently.
Learns the silence
between every breath.
Because that's where
your real story lives.
And that's...
The girl
I fell in love with.
(Still am.)
[Bridge]
Maybe...
I was never meant
to be beside you.
Maybe...
My only purpose
was to show you...
That someone
could love
every scar...
Without asking you
to hide it.
Because...
The pieces you buried the deepest...
Were always the first ones I loved.
(Every single one.)
[Chorus]
If he loves you...
I hope he never
tries to change you.
I hope he never
makes you feel
too much...
Or not enough.
I hope he sees
the girl who laughs
while hiding tears.
I hope he loves
the nights
you can't explain.
I hope...
When the whole world
feels too heavy...
He reminds you...
You never had
to carry it alone.
Because...
You were never
hard to love...
Only hard
to understand.
And I understood you...
Long before
you ever believed
you were worth
understanding.
[Outro]
(If he loves you...)
(...he doesn't let you go)
(Because I never stopped loving you)
