[Intro]
Juliet, hear my confession in the quiet of night
Tonigh I lay it down, a heart learning to get it right
[Verse 1]
I wore your love like a spotlight, forgot how to breathe
Did the unthinkable just to make you look my way
You parade your boyfriends like a show in the crowd
And I stood there begging, hoping you would hear me say
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I loved you so loud that I lost my way
If you hear me now, know I’m learning how to stay
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
[Verse 2]
You show me your new flame when we're in the same room
I pretend I don't notice, hide the ache behind a smile
You say you love me, but it's only when the room fades
I nod and promise I’ll disappear if that is what you crave
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I loved you so loud that I lost my way
If you hear me now, know I’m learning how to stay
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
[Verse 3]
I realize the danger in obsession and the cost of the ache
I pause, I breathe, I write a letter I’ll never send
I vow to love with boundaries, free from need and fear
To let you choose to stay, not chase you to the edge
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I loved you so loud that I lost my way
If you hear me now, know I’m learning how to stay
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
[Verse 4]
If you turn toward me again, I’ll show up with consent
I’ll become the kind of lover who respects your truth
If you want me here, you’ll ask, and I’ll answer
Until then I bleed poetry, learning to love with courage
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I loved you so loud that I lost my way
If you hear me now, know I’m learning how to stay
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
[Bridge]
Let me prove this with patience, not with stunts or noise
I’ll trade the chase for trust, if you’ll trade doubt for choice
Apology is the doorway, forgiveness the light
Maybe we’ll meet again where love chooses to stay
[Chorus]
I'm learning to breathe when you’re near, not begging for a nod
Let your own heart decide, not the crowd or the clock
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
[Chorus]
Let your heart decide, not the crowd or the clock
Love should lift you up, not chase you into the day
Maybe we'll meet again where love decides to stay
[Outro]
Counting lessons in the night, I’m learning to be better
Juliet, if you hear me, I’m trying to be steady
Love me or let me go, I’ll choose a healthier way
