Hope Is A Heartache
Léon Lyrics

Stuck in emotions and I don't know what they mean
I am overwhelmed with feelings that I don't understand

Keep thinking about us and how things get in between
I can't stop ruminating on how our relationship fell apart

But if it is love, it doesn't matter, you don't belong to me
Even if it was love, it doesn't change the fact that you are with someone else

But I think you know, hmm
I believe you understand the impact you have on me

I'm lost in your city, I was hoping we could meet
I long to see you, even though the circumstances are complicated

But you keep your distance, maybe I should let it be
You're avoiding me, perhaps it's best for me to do the same

And if it is love, it doesn't matter, but still it gets to me
Although it doesn't change the situation, the feelings still affect me deeply

When I talk about you, I'm afraid to say too much
I'm hesitant to share my thoughts because it might come across as desperate or obsessive

Somebody asked about you, if there's something more to us
People are curious if our relationship was more than just friendship

But if it is love, doesn't matter, there's nothing to discuss
Even if there was more, it doesn't change the present reality

Oh-whoa
vocalization

If it is love, it doesn't matter
Love is irrelevant to the current circumstances

But still I gotta know, I gotta know
I still need closure, even if it won't change anything

Think back to the hotel, to where no one else could see
I reminisce on our intimate moments in private, away from prying eyes

Us two in the hallway saying things you shouldn't say to me
We spoke openly and passionately, revealing our true feelings

And if that is love, then what's the point now? You got someone to hold
Even if it was love, you are with someone else now, so what's the use in dwelling on it?

But does she know, know?
I wonder if your current partner is aware of our past and the depth of our connection

All the moments that I ran from
I avoided facing my true feelings and the consequences of our relationship

Always thought you'd wait for me
I had the misguided belief that you were holding out for me

Now this hope is but a heartache that lives inside of me
My hope has turned into a painful source of heartbreak

But still it hurts, and it makes me wonder
The pain persists, and I can't help but question what could have been

It's like we're sitting on dynamite
Our unresolved feelings create an explosive and risky situation

But we're not ready to start a fight
Neither of us is willing to dispute the delicate balance we've established

Is it too late to figure it out?
I wonder if we missed our chance to explore our connection and if a resolution is still possible

Just say you're ready
If you were willing to commit to exploring our relationship, then I would be as well

'Cause I've been wondering
My mind is consumed with thoughts of what could have been and what could still be
