[Verse 1] I remember the night we first met Two strangers underneath the city lights You were laughing like you knew me And I was looking for a place to hide We talked until the morning came About the dreams we never told the world Somewhere between goodbye and sunrise I became your girl [Pre-Chorus] You saw the parts I tried to hide I saw the fear behind your eyes We didn’t promise we’d be forever We just promised not to lie [Chorus] Why wasn’t loving you enough? Why couldn’t love decide? I had your heart, you had mine But we couldn’t have the same life We held each other through the dark We made our broken pieces shine If love was all we needed You would still be mine [Verse 2] You had a road you had to follow I had a dream I couldn’t leave behind We tried to bend our lives together But every compromise took something from our hearts There was no one left to blame No cruel goodbye, no final lie Just two people standing at a crossroads With different roads in sight I wanted you to stay beside me You wanted me to chase my dreams And somewhere between what we wanted We lost the space between [Pre-Chorus] I could have asked you to stay You could have asked me to change But what kind of love survives If we have to disappear to make it work? [Chorus] Why wasn’t loving you enough? Why couldn’t love decide? I had your heart, you had mine But we couldn’t have the same life I still remember how you held me Like tomorrow didn’t have to come We were right for each other Just not for the life we’d become [Bridge — 98 BPM] Maybe love was never meant to save us Maybe it was meant to change us You taught me how to open my heart I taught you how to let someone in And even now, when I miss you I don’t wish we had never met Because losing you was never the worst part… The worst part was knowing That love was real [Breakdown] We didn’t stop loving each other… We just stopped walking The same road. [Final Chorus] Why wasn’t loving you enough? I still don’t know the answer I had your heart, you had mine And somehow we still had to let go Maybe some love is not forever Maybe forever isn’t the point Maybe we were meant to find each other So we could become who we were meant to be [Final Chorus — Bigger] Why wasn’t loving you enough? Why does my heart still call your name? I don’t want another life I just wish ours could have stayed the same If I could meet you once again Before the years took us apart I’d still walk toward you I’d still choose your heart [Outro] Maybe we were meant to meet Maybe we were meant to love Maybe we were never meant to stay… But I will never call it a mistake. You were my love. And I was yours.
