Mstrcrft ft. John Legend Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You gave me rainbows and butterflies
We did enjoy our happiness?
When our love was over
I was such a mess
I smiled at you
And you smiled back
There's no turning back
You said you loved me
And I did too
Now though it's over
I still love you
You're in my mind
You're in my heart
I wish I knew right from the start
All my friends said you break my heart
A heartbreaker right from the start
I tried to fight it
I tried so hard
And every day
I pray to god
That you and me were meant to be
But you had another
You had a lover
And now is gone
I don't know why
I feel like crying
Just want to die
I can't look at you
And you know why
No, I tried so hard
To catch your eye
You're in my mind
You're in my heart
I wish I knew right from the start
All my friends said you break my heart
A heartbreaker right from the start
You're in my mind
You're in my heart
I wish I knew right from the start
All my friends said you break my heart
A heartbreaker right from the start

Remember when I caught your eye
Recalling the moment when I first grabbed your attention
You gave me rainbows and butterflies
You made me feel ecstatic and filled with joy
We did enjoy our happiness?
Did our love bring us genuine happiness and contentment?
When our love was over
Our romantic relationship has ended
I was such a mess
I was emotionally shattered and disoriented
I smiled at you
I expressed happiness and admiration towards you
And you smiled back
You reciprocated my positive feelings
That's when I knew
That was the moment when I realized
There's no turning back
We can't reverse our feelings and actions
You said you loved me
You confessed your love to me
And I did too
I felt the same way about you
Now though it's over
But now that our relationship is finished
I still love you
I still have affection towards you
You're in my mind
You constantly occupy my thoughts
You're in my heart
You hold a special place in my emotions
I wish I knew right from the start
I regret not realizing earlier
All my friends said you break my heart
All my acquaintances warned me that you would hurt me emotionally
A heartbreaker right from the start
You were already someone who would cause heartache from the beginning
I tried to fight it
I attempted to resist my feelings
I tried so hard
I exerted immense effort
And every day
Day by day
I pray to god
I implored God for help and guidance
That you and me were meant to be
That we were destined to be together
But you had another
But you were seeing someone else
You had a lover
You were already in a romantic relationship with someone else
And now is gone
And now that everything is over
I don't know why
I have no idea why
I feel like crying
I have the urge to weep
Just want to die
I feel like giving up on life
I can't look at you
I can't face you
And you know why
You understand the reason
