Love Too Hard
Armin van Buuren Lyrics

Some stories unfold
Certain narratives are revealed over time

This one showed its colors instantly
This particular narrative was apparent from the very beginning

From the start I knew
I had an understanding of what was to come from the beginning

Who you were
I knew your true personality and identity

But I didn’t walk away
Despite knowing who you were, I did not leave

Just understimated
I miscalculated the situation

The wounds of denial
The pain and guilt of not accepting what I knew to be true

Were self inflicted
I caused this pain and guilt onto myself

Just because
Simply because

You love too hard
You have a tendency to give too much of yourself in love

You think you love’s enough
You believe that your love alone can sustain a relationship for both of us

To both of us
For the both of us together

Strong enough for two
Robust and lasting for two people in a relationship

You love too much
You have an excessive amount of affection in your heart

I never wanted this
I did not desire this situation

Don’t know why I went for the ride
I do not understand why I allowed myself to be involved in this situation

Was always clear to me
I always knew the nature of our relationship

All we were
Our relationship was merely what it was

And I should have walked away
I should have left the relationship when I had the chance

When I had the chance to
At that moment when I could have left
