The way you loved me I could never understand

I couldn’t understand, cause I didn’t know how to love myself

Always ready to deliver, always trying to meet other people’s expectations

The moment I couldn’t bear, I was ready to be unloved

So ready I rebelled against all that was an ordinary stereotype

So disappointed in life itself, I decided to unleash what I was always holding back

Little did I know that this too was a part of me, a part played I needed, to heal

And as you told me it was okay to be absolutely me that you were ready to see

As you watched me tear down, open and raw, surprisingly you had that same deep look in your eyes

How you loved me I was never going to understand

How you hold me, I was always going to cherish

That I was worth it, I will forever find hard to believe

Why me? Why you? How you and me?

How you loved me I could never understand

Until the day I was going to learn how to love myself
