V6

[Intro - spoken softly over piano] I feel like I’m without you every time you come around. [Verse 1] I feel like I’m without you every time you come around, I keep my eyes on the floor, I keep my voice down. I don’t wanna look you in your eyes, ‘cause I don’t want you to see how much I still love you, how much you’re still in me. [Pre-Chorus] And it scares me, what if you don’t love me? What if you still hate me for leaving you? [Chorus] So don’t look in my eyes, you’ll see everything I hide. I’m sorry, I didn’t know what to do, I thought I was doing the best for us, the best for me and you. I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on to you. [Verse 2] I was already telling myself that I couldn’t handle you, I was tired of arguing every single day we got through. And the way you looked at me, it wasn’t the same, I saw it in your eyes before I took the blame. [Pre-Chorus] And it scares me, what if you don’t love me? What if you still hate me for leaving you? [Chorus] So don’t look in my eyes, you’ll see everything I hide. I’m sorry, I didn’t know what to do, I thought I was doing the best for us, the best for me and you. I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on to you. [Bridge - stripped down, voice and piano] Every time you come around, I hold my breath, I hold my ground. If I let you look too long, you’d know I never moved on. [Final Chorus - full harmonies, strings swell] So don’t look in my eyes, you’ll see everything I hide. I’m sorry, I didn’t know what to do, I thought I was doing the best for us, the best for me and you. I tried to hold on, I’m still holding on to you. [Outro - spoken softly, piano fades] I’m sorry, I didn’t know what to do. I still love you.
