Loved You Slow

[Verse 1] I bought you ink 'cause you said you liked it Brought you sweets, thought you'd feel that effort Never said it loud, but it was love in silence Kept it soft so I won’t get hurt [Pre-Chorus] You called when you were bored, I picked up fast Acted like a friend, but hoping it would last I never told you all of what I felt But every word from me was real [Chorus] I let you go, at least I tried But truth is, you still cross my mind You never asked, but I gave my time My quiet love, you left behind Maybe you’ll never know But I was the one who loved you slow [Verse 2] You said “don’t push, just wait till May” I said “okay,” though I hurt each day Saw you chatting while I stayed unseen I was just your pause, never the in-between [Pre-Chorus] I walked away, no goodbye kiss You texted “sorry,” but didn’t know this— It wasn’t you who should’ve said that word It was me who stayed, unheard [Chorus] I let you go, at least I tried But truth is, you still cross my mind You never asked, but I gave my time My quiet love, you left behind Maybe you’ll never know But I was the one who loved you slow [Bridge] You never knew the nights I cried When you stopped calling, no reason why Still I smiled, still I stayed Hoping love would find its way [Final Chorus] I let you go, at least I tried But some goodbyes still make you cry You never saw it, but I was there Giving more than I could bear Maybe it’s best you’ll never know That I was the one who loved you slowpop,slo,
