I know you’re sick of hearing this, but why did you leave him?
I know the love you’re dreamin’ of, but that love doesn’t really exist
Oh you tried very hard, but this force was way beyond
Anything that your head would have the nerve to tell your heart
But
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
I know the stress your weariness thinking how could it all come to this?
You were the two we all looked up to, you were joined at the hip you were kids
Did your head warn your heart that once this is done he’s gone?
Did your heart want your head to tell him “maybe we could still be friends?”
No
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
But it’s not something you can negotiate with it’s your animal side and it’s just kickin’ in
Now it’s thunder and boulders and hunger and violence
An uncivilized roar when all you wanted was silence
no such thing as a love, only things we don’t discuss
no such thing as a friend, only things we don’t understand
But
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
He loves you, he loves you, he loves you, yes he does
