Linger
Miguel Escueta Lyrics

If you, if you could return, don't let it burn, don't let it fade.
If you could come back to me, don't let our love be destroyed, don't let it disappear.

I'm sure I'm not being rude, but it's just your attitude,
I don't mean to offend, but the way you act towards me is hurting me.

It's tearing me apart, It's ruining everything.
Your behavior is causing me emotional pain and destroying our relationship.

I swore, I swore I would be true, and honey, so did you.
We both promised to be faithful to each other.

So why were you holding his hand? Is that the way we stand?
Why were you being intimate with someone else? Is that how you see our relationship?

Were you lying all the time? Was it just a game to you?
Were you deceiving me all along? Was our relationship just a game to you?

But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
I am deeply in love with you and it makes me vulnerable to your actions.

You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
You have such immense control over my emotions and actions that it's almost laughable.

Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to keep this pain and confusion going? Is it necessary?

Oh, I thought the world of you.
I had such high regards for you.

I thought nothing could go wrong,
I believed that our love could withstand anything.

But I was wrong. I was wrong.
I was mistaken, and our relationship is breaking apart.

If you, if you could get by, trying not to lie,
If you could manage to be truthful, not deceiving me.

Things wouldn't be so confused and I wouldn't feel so used,
Our situation would be less complicated, and I wouldn't feel taken advantage of.

But you always really knew, I just wanna be with you.
You always knew that all I wanted was to be with you.

Oooooooohhh...
