Verse 1 I’m a bad boy, I’ve done bad things. I loved you deeply, but I showed you other things. I hurt you, made you cry, and that cut me just as deep inside. I wasn’t ready then, I’m barely ready now. Pre‑Chorus But you stayed through the pain, through the silence, through the weak excuses I kept hiding behind. Chorus What have I done to deserve you? You never left, though maybe you should’ve. I never cheated, never raised a hand— but that’s the floor, not the reason to love a man. You deserve someone standing tall, someone at their peak. And I’m trying to be that man, even when I feel weak. Verse 2 I loved your body— your eyes, your lips, your black hair, your skin, your freckles, your hips. And you loved me too, I felt it in your kiss, in the way you held me close like I was something you could fix. Pre‑Chorus But now you’re cold, and I feel old. We talk but it’s plain, and I know I bring you pain. Chorus What have I done to deserve you? You never left, though maybe you should’ve. I never cheated, never raised a hand— but that’s the floor, not the reason to love a man. You deserve someone standing tall, someone at their peak. And I’m trying to be that man, even when I feel weak. Bridge I keep to myself, I always have. It’s hard to open up, even when you say it helps. My mind wanders, gets bored, chasing desire and comfort. And I feel guilty ’cause I know I could be better— but the work feels heavy, and I’m stuck in my hole. Outro What I’m trying to say is that I love you. I think that’s what I want. But after all these years, I’m still lost.
