What If You Had Stayed
Sometimes I wonder what would have happened
Had you stayed
Like you said you would
I wonder what would have happened
Had we kissed one last time
Had I gotten to actually say goodbye
I'm pretending it doesn't hurt
I'm pretending I don't care
I'm pretending I'm not falling apart.
I would be here for you
I would be your everything
I would be the last person you loved
I noticed a dozen things wrong with me
A dozen things wrong with us
But it was too late
I miss you already
I miss the way you smiled
The way you played with my hair
I don't know how to feel
I don't know how to be okay
I don't know how to not love you
You promised you wouldn't leave
And that you would marry me
But I guess not
I guess we're done
I love you
