ElijahMakesClassics - Hopeless Romantic Lyrics

Yeah
You don't know what you lost, you don't know what I gained
You don't know how it feels when people mention your name
I'm just tryna fit in but see I'm in my own lane, at least you knew that much
Different, I'm not the same
Good luck finding someone better
Please, keep my sweater, the one I gave you at church
And when you read that letter, I hope you realize I loved you, I really did
I saw you smile felt so happy like a little kid
I poured my heart out in that poem that I gave to you
Hopeless romantic thinking maybe I should change my views
These women seem to start lying when I tell the truth
It's like the more I start trying, the less they do
Went from a love song to this, things change so fast
But then again I can't be reminiscing on the past, I'm thankful for it
I grew and plus I wrote this track
Thought you were special, cause all I seen before was wack
But in the end you just a girl who don't love me back
I'm getting over it, I'm trying, I really am
It's hard to see you on my timeline on Instagram
So I just try to swipe past it and ignore your stories, cause ours is over
But you different than you were before me
Feel like I gave you a part of me that you can't return
And yeah, that paper I wrote on you can rip and burn
But all the things you discovered with me, you can't unlearn
Know how it feels to be loved, I set the bar so high
I don't know if you can get that from another guy
And I'm not saying you're not worthy, cause that's just not true
I'm just saying it was special how I treated you
And when I looked into your eyes I saw more than blue
You said you wouldn't waste my time, well I guess that was a lie
Now I'm sitting writing rhymes about the girl I thought was mine
But I know it's by design, He ain't want us to align
He ain't want us to align
Listen
You remember when I told you I loved you
Or when you told me don't be scared cause I could really trust you
Now I'm thinking about that moment, did I make a mistake
Were the things you told me real or were the feelings all fake
Yeah, you held my heart together, then you made that shit break
Now I'm sitting in my bed by myself lying awake
I'm tired but I can't sleep
I'm looking but I can't seem to find the woman that's gon hold me down while I chase these dreams
It's crazy cause I thought that was you
You told me you were losing feelings, baby, I was too
But I knew the reason, it wasn't something that was gonna make me say I'm leaving
I would have waited for you, patient is a state of being
I understood your situation baby
I was in your corner, maybe I was too involved
Or maybe we could have resolved all these feelings of guilt
Had you distracted, preoccupied, forsaking what we built
Yeah
I know hiding me wasn't easy
Abiding by the rules your parents placed for you wasn't either, but baby listen
You told me I was the best man in your life
I gave you the best advice
Shit, I saw my future wife in you
Yeah
All that for nothing but a text
Went from your name to just ex
All I can now is reflect
Should I wait for you to come back or just move on to the next
Man, this always how it goes, what the f*ck did I expect
And that letter you were writing I never got to read
I ain't want to win alone, with you was dying to succeed
Man, this shit was a reality now it's just a dream
Maybe love is what I want, but it's not something I need
And that letter you were writing I never got to read
I ain't want to win alone, with you was dying to succeed
Man, this shit was a reality now it's just a dream
Maybe love is what I want, but it's not something I need
