This Love
Glenn Lewis Lyrics

I have cried all night
I have been crying all night long, trying to make our love work.

Trying to make it better
I have been trying hard to improve our relationship, but it's not working out.

I recognize my pain
I am aware of the hurt I am feeling because of our failed love.

Things are getting harder
Our relationship is becoming increasingly complicated and difficult to maintain.

For us to be in this love
We are both struggling to keep our love for each other alive.

And my tears wash away my smile
My sadness is so intense that it has wiped away any signs of happiness on my face.

And I'm drowning in my sorrow
I feel completely overwhelmed and consumed by my sadness.

There's no hope for today
I see no possibility for repair or restoration of our love anytime soon.

I can't see my tomorrow
I can't envision a future where our love is rekindled, restored, or reestablished.

'Cause we are no longer in love
The truth is, the love we shared is over, and nothing can change that.

This love, your love, my love
Our love, as we knew it, is now in ruins. Yours, mine, and ours.

It used to be our love
The love we once had was mutual, shared, and strong.

I've been blazed all day
I have been anxious and nervous all day.

Dreading confrontation
I am afraid of confrontation and conflict, and I don't know how to approach the matter at hand.

I've waited until now
I have deferred having this conversation until this moment because I wasn't sure if I was ready to face it.

For this conversation to take place
I have been anticipating and dreading this conversation with you for a while.

That we're wasting time
I have come to realize that we are both wasting our time by holding onto a love that is no longer there.

With this love, I'm trying to be nice
I am trying to be empathetic, kind, and respectful while expressing my feelings about our love.

Don't want you to be a hater
I don't want to create animosity, anger, or bitterness between us as a result of this conversation.

We've had our beautiful sons
We share something precious and valuable in our children, and I want to keep that connection healthy.

So we gotta be one, sooner or later
Whether we like it or not, we will always be connected as parents and must work together to support our children.

'Cause we've got so much more, than this love
We have a rich, complex history and relationship that extends beyond just our love for each other.

Can we still be, can we still be friends?
Can we establish some level of amicability, respect, and kindness towards each other despite the end of our relationship?

It will all end in tears if we decide
We risk creating a lot of pain and sorrow for ourselves and our children if we can't find a peaceful, respectful way to end our love.

To leave, but stay, I'm so confused
I am torn between wanting to end our love but still wanting to stay connected to you and our children.

I can't go on this way, I just can't go on, on this way
I can't keep pretending, avoiding the issue, and carrying on a love that is over. Something needs to change, and we need to move on.

What happened to my love baby?
I am wondering where our love went wrong and what went wrong to end it.

Now we got to think about our sons
We need to prioritize our children's well-being and think about what is best for them in our next steps.

So now it's over babe, now it's over baby, babe
Our love is officially over, and we need to find a way to move forward in a positive, healthy, and respectful manner.
