Stop Loving You
David Bisbal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Stop Loving You i, I don?t need you sympathy
No I, I don?t want your?used to be?s?
No, don?t try to rescue me
Leave me with my dignity
?Cause I?ve been down before
Take back the memories
It just wasn?t meant to be
You wonder what you?re sacrifcing for
There comes a time when you will
Find you just can?t fight no more
You told me it would never end
You showed me how to live again
You gave me air so I could breathe
Now you?re taking it away from me
You promised me I?d never cry
But of everything you showed me how to do
You never showed me how to stop loving you
You, you were the bad advice
That I, I just didn?t recognize
You wonder what you?re sacrificing for
There comes a time when you will
Find you just can?t take no more
You told me it would never end
You showed me how to live again
You gave me air so I could breathe
Now you?re taking it away from me
You promised me I?d never cry
But of everything you showed me how to do
You never showed me how to stop
Think of all we could have
Been it hurts me just remembering
I could never understand
Don?t you see what?s slipping
From your hands?
You told me it would never end
You showed me how to live again
You gave me air so I could breathe
Now you?re taking it away from me
You promised me I?d never cry
But of everything you showed me how to do




You never showed me how to stop loving you
You never showed me how to stop loving you
