Analysis of Still Feelings
You left me
but still we can’t let go
We are just friends now
but damn
I still love you so
Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We would never break?
Now you come
You stay with me some
Can’t be the same
So weird
What did we do wrong
Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We would never break?
We did break
and found even more
How can it be
we did
not know this before?
Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We could never break?
