Both my parents knew you weren't the one
And yeah, we tried our best to prove 'em wrong
But I think that they were right
We were two kids in this life just havin' fun
Why'd it take ten months to see it clear?
If I'd saw it comin', I would've disappeared
I'm just thinkin' to myself, thought our path led somewhere else
But now we're here
If it's perfect on paper, then why do I feel like?
I love the idea of you more than I love you
And that's hard, so hard to hear
We checked off all the boxes, but that's not what love is
And that's hard, it's hard to hear
Even harder to say, harder to say
So hard to say, it's so hard to say
I know you're confused, I feel the same
You're still in the dark, and I'm the blame
And I can't stand to see you cry
If you don't wanna say goodbye, then look away
But someday you'll be in another's arms
And you'll be happy that I broke your heart
Maybe then you might forgive me
For not takin' you with me, it's a start
If it's perfect on paper, then why do I feel like?
I love the idea of you more than I love you
And that's hard, so hard to hear
We checked off all the boxes, but that's not what love is
And that's hard, it's hard to hear
Even harder to say, harder to say
So hard to say, it's so hard to say
