You touch my hand and I forget to breathe
But somehow I still don't believe
You say I'm yours but my mind spins
What if I'm just where your story begins?
You smile like I'm your only one
But I keep waiting for the Sun to rise
And show I dream too deep
While you keep loving me in sleep
You never gave me a reason to doubt
I built these ghosts and let them out
Maybe you love me but not like I love you
Maybe I fall harder than I'm supposed to
You hold my heart like it's something you'll lose
And I can't blame you if that's true
I know you're here but it still feels wrong
Like I'm just a verse before your song
And I don't know why but I still can't see
Why you'd ever stay with someone like me?
You talk in ways that calm the storm
But my heart's still aching to be torn
You tell me love's a steady hand
I shake too much to understand
I see forever when I see your face
But I still feel easy to replace
You hold me close, I still feel far
Like you're reaching for a brighter star
You never lied, you never strayed
It's my own thoughts that make me fade
Maybe you love me but not like I love you
Maybe I fall harder than I'm supposed to
You hold my heart like it's something you'll lose
And I can't blame you if that's true
I know you're here but it still feels wron
Like I'm just a verse before your song
And I don't know why but I still can't see
Why you'd ever stay with someone like me?
If you ever go, don't say goodbye
Just leave the light and let me lie
I'll tell myself it's for the best
And hope your love finds sweeter rest
Maybe you love me but not like I love you
Maybe I was just something to get you through
You'll find your peace, I'll find my pain
And I'll still whisper your name
You'll move on and I'll just be
The almost love that couldn't be
Couldn't be
Couldn't be
Couldn't be
