[Verse 1]
I really looked at you yesterday
I studied your face
There's a doubt deep inside of me
You can't love me like you say

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh
Secrets I don't wanna keep
Finally catching up to me
And they're gonna break you
Hold on to the memory
Of who you know I wanna be
It'll carry us through

[Chorus]
I loved you first and I waited for you
I know I burnt all we built into
I hate the hell that I put you through
But I see one thing is true
For me, it's always been you

[Verse 2]
You threw your arms around me the other night
You were talking in your sleep
And I got choked up
When I thought about another life wherе
You weren't lying next to mе
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh
Now you know a side of me
I never wanted you to see
But I couldn't keep down
And standing in the reckoning
Darling don't let go of me
Here upon the cold ground

[Chorus]
I loved you first and I waited for you
I know I burnt all we built into
I hate the hell that I put you through
But I see one thing is true
For me, it's always been you

[Bridge]
Please don't, please don't let go of me
Please don't, please don't
Please don't, please don't let go of me
Please don't, please don't

[Chorus]
I loved you first and I waited for you
But I know I burnt all we built into
I hate the hell that I put you through
But I see one thing is true
For me, it's always been you
