Can I Not Love Again
K.Will Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Been so long
Forgot what it meant to love
Feels so wrong
Though I'm long over us
And it's like I won't ever recover from this affliction
And I am still a victim to your own ambitions

How can I ever love again
When it's clear that I can't win
I can't take this heartbreak again
Is loving you such a sin

Now I'm falling deep
I'm falling fast
But I can't seem to let go
Of my past

History often repeats
Round and round we go
So I'll just tell myself to take it slow

And it's like I won't ever recover from this affliction
And I am still a victim to your own ambitions

How can I ever love again
When it's clear that I can't win
I can't take this heartbreak again
Is loving you such a sin

How can I ever love again
When it's clear that I can't win




I can't take this heartbreak again
Is loving you such a sin
