This Love
Maroon 5 Lyrics

I was so high, I did not recognize
I was in a state of mind that made me unable to see or understand the emotions burning in her eyes.

The fire burning in her eyes
A strong emotion emitting from her eyes which I failed to recognize.

The chaos that controlled my mind
I was overwhelmed by the commotion in my thoughts, which stopped me from realizing what was about to happen.

Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane
She quietly said farewell as she boarded a plane.

Never to return again
She would not be coming back anymore.

But always in my heart, oh
Even though she was gone, her memory would forever reside in my heart.

This love has taken its toll on me
This relationship has caused me a lot of emotional pain and suffering.

She said goodbye too many times before
She has parted ways with me multiple times in the past.

And her heart is breaking in front of me
I can see that she's feeling hurt and emotionally vulnerable.

And I have no choice 'cause I won't say goodbye anymore
I feel compelled to stay and to not let her leave me again.

I tried my best to feed her appetite
I did everything I could to satisfy her desires.

Keep her coming every night
I worked hard to make sure we spent each night together.

So hard to keep her satisfied, oh
I struggled to meet her expectations, but I kept trying.

Kept playing love like it was just a game
I treated our relationship like a game, not realizing the actual emotional consequences.

Pretending to feel the same
I acted like I had the same level of emotional attachment as she did.

Then turn around and leave again, but oh
Afterward, I would just walk away from her like nothing had happened.

I'll fix these broken things
I will repair the parts of our relationship that are damaged.

Repair your broken wings
I will help you heal and regain your strength after being hurt.

And make sure everything's alright
I will do everything in my power to ensure that our relationship grows stronger.

(It's alright, it's alright)
Everything will be okay.

My pressure on your hips
I will hold you tightly and make you feel loved and secure.

Sinking my fingertips
I will touch every part of your body to show you how much I care.

Into every inch of you
I will make sure that I explore every part of your being and help you feel complete.

Because I know that's what you want me to do
I understand your desires and will fulfill them for you.
