Verse 1
We were getting so close, till the atmosphere changed
If I pushed it too hard, I'm sorry I was impatient
But you walked right out my dreams, out of my imagination
Now I'm stranded in the quiet, trying to find my patience
So what if we're different? There's magic in the contrast
Wanted to be more than friends, but the dynamic crashed
When I asked what we could be...
How I was ready for something real...
You dropped it so casually, leaving me alone with how I feel
Chorus (New - The emotional core of the song)
'Cause I would've handed you the world, every single thing you wanted
Held you up as my prize, I couldn't help but flaunt it
I was ready to give my all, stay and see it through
But you tossed it in the wind, leaving me broken over you
Yeah, I gave you something genuine...
But you just weren't feeling it.
Verse 2
If you could only see this from my point of view
But you played the same old chords, a painful deja vu
You said you wanted a good man, someone true and gentlemanly
I put my heart on the line, gave you something heavily
I wasn't afraid to be vulnerable, to bare my sentiment
Ready to give you the world, down to my last Benjamin
Chorus
'Cause I would've handed you the world, every single thing you wanted
Held you up as my prize, I couldn't help but flaunt it
I was ready to give my all, stay and see it through
But you tossed it in the wind, leaving me broken over you
Yeah, I gave you something genuine...
But you just weren't feeling it.
Bridge (New - The climax of the song where the piano and vocals peak)
Now I'm standing in the space where we used to talk
Wondering where the connection got lost
You asked for a real one, I answered the call
But you built up a wall and let the whole thing fall
Was it too much too soon, or just not enough?
Guess it's a harsh lesson in the business of love.
Chorus
'Cause I would've handed you the world, every single thing you wanted
Held you up as my prize, I couldn't help but flaunt it
I was ready to give my all, stay and see it through
But you tossed it in the wind, leaving me broken over you
Yeah, I gave you something genuine...
But you just weren't feeling it.
Outro (New - Soft, fading vocals over a descending piano melody)
No, you weren't feeling it...
Gave you my genuine...
But you just weren't feeling it.
Thought you wanted a gentleman...
Guess you just weren't feeling it.
