i've never loved anyone
as much as they loved me
i don't think i've ever loved them the same
as they loved me
as strong as they loved me
as perfect as they loved me
his love was unconditional
i could tell
i never loved him back like that
he just let me love him like that
i couldn't leave him like that
he never told me how much it hurt him
so i broke his heart that way
because i never loved him back *the way he loved me
