I know you gave me all of you
I know it hurts cause that shit hurt me too
I know you gave me your best
And I gave you all of me
I know it hurts cause that shit hurt you too
Oh even all the greatest stories end
And I would do it all again
I know it hurts cause that shit hurt me too
It hurt me too
Used to be like diamonds and gold
Now we’re like fire and smoke
I guess it’s never easy letting go
It can be a lifetime tryna find the right one
But overnight we could say good bye
Oh, I remember
We were so in love, yeah
Always running.”
