[Music Fades In] [Intro – Female] They said it's hard to come back after a broken heart, They say time heals all wounds, But it's gonna take a lot of time, ’Cause the hole in my heart is bigger than a crater on the moon. I watched as the one I love starts his life with someone else, As much as I keep saying There needs to be more ones like you… [Female] I chose not to see what was in front of my face, Even with all the benefits, I kept looking for someone else. And now I see you with someone, and my heart sinks, Because they're living my life. [Male – soft] Every relationship, I was always there for, I always wondered, Why didn't you pick me? I thought I did everything, And I was everything you wanted. But I watched from the side As someone else was enjoying the happiness I desired… [Beat Drops] [PRE-CHORUS – Female] Believe it or not, Everyone who wanted to fill the place in my heart you left vacant, I compared them all to you. I ghosted a lot of ones that might've been good to me and for me, But they weren't you. God sent me what I had been praying for, But I wasn't ready for them… [Female – spoken] No, I don't know how to feel… All I can ask myself is this one thing— [HOOK – Duet] Whyyyyyyy? Why did I not see you when you were right here? Why did I friend-zone the best thing that ever happened to me? Now we're living different lives, So now I sit here wishing you were here, Wondering why… [CHORUS A – Female over last “why”] So I guess I have to try love again, This wasn't my plan, But I have to let my ideal of life with you go. Now I'm here crying on the inside, While trying to smile, Knowing I have to try love again with someone that's not you. [Verse – Male] Being around you made me a better person, But I didn't know it was for someone else. I need you in my life, but I had to choose me, And all I can do is ask— [HOOK – Male] Whyyyyyyy? Why didn't you pick me when I was right here? Thought I was everything you wanted, But I'm watching from the side, As someone else is holding what I dreamed, And I'm wondering why… [CHORUS A – Female stacked] So I guess I have to try love again, This wasn't my plan, But I have to let my ideal of life with you go. And now I'm here crying on the inside, While trying to smile, Knowing I have to try love again with someone that's not you. [Female] I'm letting go ’cause I don't want to disrespect your vows, ’Cause I would, and ask God for forgiveness afterwards. Maybe someone will be able to break these ties, But I will have to get out of my own way— Next time I will speak up, If and when love finds me again. [Male Adlibs] I really miss you… I wish it were you here with me right now, But we are going in different directions.
