I Don't Love You Too
Murs Olly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the morning after last night
I got in late and you were up for a fight
Oh I brought up some things that you didn't like
You said get out, I said that I just might

Sometimes I feel like we're not gonna make it
Sometimes we act like we really hate this
But we couldn't replace this

Let's face it, it's true
Yeah, we can both be cruel
Yeah, we could both be fools
I play that game as well as you
And you, you treat me the way you do
And act like you never knew
That I pretend that I don't love you too
I don't love you too
I don't love you too
You know I do

Why is it when we fight that you look your best
I know it's hot but could you wear any less
Well I won't be there so who you trying to impress
You're making damn sure that I don't have to guess
Sometimes I swear that we just wanna break
Sometimes I swear that we're not gonna take it
Yeah I might as well face it
We might as well face it

It's true
Yeah, we can both be cruel
Yeah, we could both be fools
I play that game as well as you
And you, you treat me the way you do
And act like you never knew
That I pretend that I don't love you too

We play the roles
Yeah, we put on a show
Both of us act like we're ready to let go
But I know I miss it all
And it's too far to fall

You know it's true
Yeah, we can both be cruel
Yeah, we could both be fools
I play that game as well as you
And you, you treat me the way you do
And act like you never knew
That I pretend that I don't love you too
I don't love you too
I don't love you too
But I do, you know I do yeah yeah
You know that I woah-oh-oh




You know that I woah-oh-oh
You know that I do, I do love you.
