Calvin Greenan - 8. This Wasn't Love Lyrics

Last night I let you walk out of my life
It was the last time that I'd ever see
Those emerald green eyes
In summer light I
Try to act right
But these thoughts they won't leave
So don't kiss me goodbye
You'll taste the salt on my lips
I wish we were just kids
Don't even think about pulling me closer
This has to be real this time
So why did we lie to ourselves and each other
Try to compromise to become one another
Took too much time to realize and uncover
That this wasn't love
Last month I let you walk out the front door
What could I ask for
More than what I had
Late nights long fights
It wasn't the same since you told me you hated my love
Like I'd understand
Don't kiss me goodbye
You'll taste the salt on my lips
I wish we were just kids
Don't even think about pulling me closer
This has to be real
So why did we lie to ourselves and each other
Try to compromise to become one another
Took too much time to realize and uncover
That this wasn't love
So I'll sit behind these same bars and just wonder
Why it took your heart as a key to discover
What It was like to be free and feel younger
But this wasn't love
That wasn't love
That wasn't love
That wasn't love
This wasn't love
