Even If
Jocelyn Enriquez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time, they say eases the pain
But how must I keep myself apart
From how things used to be
I know I should go on with my life
And leave the world behind
But I have learned to live
I know, I know I've got to be strong
Even if my heart
Should call out your name out in the rain
And even if
This heart would want to embrace you once again
And even if I'm all cried out
And no longer in pain
I'll never fall, in love that way
Ever again

In Time, there's only you and me
But how do I convince my heart again
That things will be okay
I know I hav to make it on my own
Since you left me all alone
All alone again
I know I know I've got to move on

Even if my heart
Should call out your name out in the rain
And even if
This heart would want to embrace you once again
And even if I'm all cried out
And no longer in pain
I'll never fall, in love that way
Ever again

Promise that you'll stay and never leave
Then tell me why should I believe
Obviously you have gone astray
And now you're miles away
I'll go on without you.

Even if my heart
Should call out your name out in the rain
And even if
This heart would want to embrace you once again
And even if I'm all cried out
And no longer in pain




I'll never fall, in love that way
Ever again
